All of my experience over the years in making films came together in this film[…]. In making Sound Barrier I discovered how much I could push beyond my limits, and in so doing, learned many things about myself and my work[...]. It was one of the reasons I left my country. A film about the moon. I have always had a dream of being on the moon; it is exactly where I want to be. This is the beginning of a new path for me.
