1. KRISTEN STEWART NATURAL.

"We rarely had the opportunity to see Kristen with that simplicity and mischievousness in movies, until now. She plays in the movie, the role of the Juliette Binoche's character assistant, a big star. The atmosphere on set and her relationship with Juliette have a lot to do with the new face and this serenity of Kristen. Of course, I saw the Twillight saga, I don’t like to choose actors based on what they did, rather on what they didn’t do yet."

4. REALITY MEETS FICTION.

"This scene takes place on the verge of a lake in Sils Maria, the two women will go swimming. So nothing to difficult to shoot. Except that the reality meets fiction. Actually we realized that some paparazzis were hiding near the edges of the lake to take pictures of Kristen Stewart. Therefore we had to use clever shenanigans; we controlled the windows of the opposite hotel. I feared that, of course, but not like that."

6. KRISTEN STEWART THE SURPRISE.

"A priori, it may seem like she’s formatted by Hollywood but it’s quite the opposite. She’s complex, intelligent and gives life, micronuances and details to the characters she plays. She really stupefied me. The movie producer, Charles Gillibert met Kristen during the shooting of On the Road and that's how the connection was made. These young people win a lot at being recognize. By the way, I will most likely do my next movie with Robert Pattinson."

7. NATURAL AND PARTNERS.

"With this picture we're in the heart of the movie. This shot captured the complicity and the natural of the relationship between the two actresses/characters. I was really stupefied by one and the other because it wasn’t an easy project. We shot in English. Juliette held on, as usual, she worked the role down to the last detail and Kristen is still a young actress, who didn’t always have freedom in her performances. It was a team work, with liberties, but in the end, it’s these specific moments that provided me a great measure of satisfaction."

Peter Sattler Talks About Kristen “It was the script and David's involvement that got Kristen interested,” he says. “She took a huge risk, jumping on to this movie with a director who hadn't directed a feature, but I think she responded to the power of the script.”
------------------------
Knowing that many first-time directors stumble with style over substance, Sattler opted to shoot Camp X-Ray as “a very classic, very elegant film” that let the script and performances do the talking. So it wasn't until he met with Stewart and talked through the character of Amy that his vision began to coalesce. “The weird thing about Kristen is that there's Kristen Stewart the star and Kristen Stewart the actor,” he says of his lead. Together, they started asking questions that acted as foundation for the film's main action. Sattler rattles off examples: “Who is this girl? She didn't do that, she did this. OK, what did she do in high school? Was she involved in sports? Was she a virgin?” He says Stewart filled in many of the blanks and added dimension to the ideas he had put on the page.

Ms. Stewart created word clouds and spoken word poetry as a way to develop her character, says the film’s writer-director Peter Sattler. “I think Kristen and I were both aware of her image and upending expectations for that image. This is a side of her that I don’t think anyone else has seen yet,” he said.

AP INTERVIEW: Stewart, who was last at the festival in 2010 when she was promoting her role as Joan Jett in "The Runaways," says "Camp X-Ray" was one of the rare scripts she'd read that made her want to work again after her two-year acting hiatus following the "Twilight" movies.

"At my age it's difficult to find stuff that isn't completely derivative," said the 23-year-old in a recent interview. "Most parts are imitating something else that was popular."

With "Snow White and the Huntsman 2" coming in 2015, Stewart's big-budget franchise days are far from over. "But it's a little bit more difficult to create the environment that I thrive in on a bigger movie," she explains. "I prefer doing smaller ones. They're quicker. I like intensive things and then I like to walk away."
