Director Statement

I am immensely grateful to God for granting me the gift of writing screenplays and the strength to co-produce this film alongside my spouse. Despite the challenges, I was blessed with a fantastic crew and surrounded by exceptionally talented individuals on set. I want to express my sincere thanks to all those I worked with. I also want to thank my cinematographer for understanding my vision and swiftly preparing for each shot I requested.

I was impressed by the humility and friendliness of the two renowned actors on set, both of whom had notable roles in various South African TV shows. As the writer, producer, and director of my first feature film titled Axiomatic Truth, I really hope you enjoy it.
