This Dreamday video was filmed in December 2005 in Monterrey, Mexico. My two friends Luis and Roberto helped me out and this was during the second day of Dreamday filming ever. We had taken a taxi on our lunch-break to one of the big fruit and vegetable markets in the city. This girl that I am interviewing is working in one of the stands there.
When I approached her and when she noticed the video camera, she looked really bothered as you can see. (And I don´t blame her...) I remember thinking in that same moment that the whole thing was a bad idea and that maybe I should just leave her alone. But the camera was running and I could not find a way to end the conversation...
So I finally get to ask my question in broken Spanish and I am wondering if she is going to ignore it or not.
But in that same moment something magical happens. And it is exactly those moments that keep me inspired to continue this project.
For a few seconds the expression in her face changes. You can hardly notice but a smile breaks through her face and then she reponds:
-To stay at home one whole day!
My dreamdayproject is not so much about the replies that I get, but more about what happens when you hear the question. When you are forced to remind yourself about your dreams and wishes...
