Peter Buck: The festivals are horrible now.

Mariam Ghani: Yes, that’s very true.

Buck: We own buildings. Why go to a warehouse?

Ghani: I spend quite a lot of time there already.

Buck: I don’t care.

Ghani: So, the premise of the book and also of my loose adaptation of it is that there’s a city that becomes so divided, it actually becomes two separate countries.

Buck: Not everyone is lucky enough to be able to do this.

Ghani: You can have a home base, and New York is mine.

Buck: You might be right. I don’t know what happened there.

Ghani: This happened, then this happened, and then this happened, and then this happened.

Buck: We’re not suing each other.

Ghani: We’re always negotiating, and we’re always open to conversations.

Buck: Do you have a press photo?

Ghani: Yeah.

Buck: This isn’t bad.
