It has been a long journey for me and my writing co-partner Kamal John Iskander and the producers of ‘Objectif 9 ’. We have been around the block many many times and they say take rejections as a badge of honor because we were rejected for many years with the script. I always believed this story needed to be told and it is never a match until you get it right with the right partners.
