about the film.
Sunat was the one film that I have always wanted to make...and never got around to making it.
It took me -- at last count -- 5 years, 10 producers, 3 false starts and 2 years of National Service before I finally shouted "Action!" for the first shot of the film.
Suddenly Sunat stopped being a dream. Suddenly, Sunat became a reality. It became my next short film...
I had a blast making Sunat with my best friends, the greatest crew and my family.
I love Sunat to bits.
I hope you do too.
