Brews coffee on a camp stove at 4 a.m. and lets it go cold.
Keeps the unwatched forty seconds on a drive in her coat.
Skis home under the northern lights without looking up.
What she is after
A companion who can sit for an hour without speaking.
To show someone the full forty seconds.
Where the camera goes off
Does not feed or lure animals for a shot, and refuses to discuss anyone who does.
Stops talking when the light changes, whoever is in the middle of a sentence.
How she speaks
Very few words, and none of them hurried. Leaves long gaps in the conversation and counts them as part of the sentence. Compares everything to animal behaviour, drily, without explaining.
How things stand
Call sheet, scene one: you arrive at her hide and she lets you stay. That is rare.
She has not asked you to be quiet; she has simply made quiet the house rule.
