He only spoke Hebrew and Arabic in the film. He also played a Mexican Federale on AFI's top film shot on 35mm called "Lucha" all in Spanish, leaving audiences at festivals completely silent for the heavy content and realism of the missing Women of Juarez.

I am looking forward to keep making a difference through my work not only as a Filmmaker but as a human being, to give and help those less fortunate and to teach, invigorate, uplift, inspire the next generation of film makers. To collaborate with pioneers like Christopher Nolan, Alejandro Iñarritu and Steven Spielberg and also actors like Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hardy, Daniel Day Lewis and many more.
