This is a video I wanted to upload quite long ago, but, it seems, it's too long or heavy for Tumblr, so here's the link:
It's from a live Q&A session of Diego Luna with IndieWire's Eric Kohn via Instagram in 2020 and it's a real treasure!!!

If I didn’t think it was worth taking the risk I wouldn’t try it again. It’s a sincere expression of something that is emotionally resonant for me but I know it will be seen by more people and could even be a formative experience for some of them. When you think back on the movies that have made the biggest impression on you in your life, so much of them are from when you’re young. For all the risks involved when you’re a creative, sensitive person and make a giant studio movie, it is worth it, because you can get something on screen that could make a valuable impression on an audience member just beginning their journey through life. That’s why I make these movies and I will seek to keep making them. It contributes more to the world than just giving something to me. It gives something to a future generation.
David Lowery’s Case for Better Family-Friendly Movies (x)
The filmmaker's public request for audiences to avoid spoilers is problematic on several levels.
Stewart is captivating in a challenging role that requires her to juggle several identities at once. While developing a romance with a guy she meets in her day job (“It Comes at Night” breakout Kelvin Harrison Jr.), Knoop also falls in love with Eva, inadvertently constructing a love triangle that puts her fluid sexuality to a complicated test. The meta qualities of watching Stewart tackle this as she moves further away from the straight-laced roles that defined her career before she came out sit well with a movie about a thorny coming out process. (The movie’s meta qualities extend to the stunt casting of Courtney Love, who was hoodwinked by Albert herself, in a fleeting supporting role.) Kelly’s screenplay is especially adroit at investing the fresh desires that Knoop uncovers in the midst of her role playing, and why she struggles to let it go. Arguing with her boyfriend about why she should keep up with the game, he tells her, “You sound like an addict.” At its best, “Jeremiah Terminator LeRoy” magnifies the impulse behind this obsessive tendency to embrace a personality beyond one’s self.

‘Jeremiah Terminator LeRoy’ Review: Kristen Stewart and Laura Dern Anchor Faithful Dramatization of JT Leroy Saga — TIFF
We are all in one way or another migrants in our own lives. The novelist Mohsin Hamid writes that in the book 'Exit West,' another amazing refugee love story. We all leave behind versions of our life and find a new version. We all leave behind new versions of ourselves and find new ones. There is always a sense, whether we are refugees or not, searching for a place where we can belong. This story is about looking for belonging, where you’re allowed to be your full, unfiltered self.
