Some people celebrate premieres.
Today, I celebrate my Name Day. 😍🎉
No red carpet. No filming. No funding application. Just cake, champagne, and the rare feeling that everything is exactly on schedule.
Happy Name Day to all the Adolfs out there. How should I celebrate my Name Day? 😎
An Austin storm knocked the power for the entire block. The screen went black mid-scene. The sound died. And not a single person in that audience got up to leave.
They sat in the dark for a full hour. In a storm. For a comedy from Luxembourg about an Egyptian DJ who loses his passport.
That film had already survived 47 script drafts, years of rejection from every fund in Europe, one blackout felt almost poetic.
When the power came back, every seat was still filled. They laughed all the way through. And the Q&A afterwards was one of the best I've ever given.
I spent ten years making Sawah. I reinvested every fee I ever earned back into it. I took the bus to my own shoot because there was no budget for a driver.
The audience in that church taught me something I have not forgotten. A good story does not need perfect conditions. It just needs to be worth waiting for.
Stop chasing the perfect launch. Chase the story that makes people stay in their seats.
What is the hardest moment your project survived? Tell me below.
When I moved to the UK, I enrolled in Media & Cultural Studies for one reason: it was the only course that still had places. No grand plan. I barely knew what “media” meant. I just needed somewhere to start.
Then something clicked. Small projects, bad first attempts, failing, learning, trying again. Slowly I realized I had found the thing I wanted to spend my life doing.
The career I love most came from a decision I made with almost no certainty at all.
So if you are waiting for the perfect plan before you take your first step, here is what I know now: sometimes the only thing you need is one open door. You walk through it. And years later you realize it was yours all along.
What was the “accident” that ended up shaping your path? Tell me below:
To be fair, I was 24, had zero films, one USB stick, and the unshakeable confidence of a young man who had no idea what a movie actually costs.
The fund said NO. The producers said nothing. So I quietly gave up. Then, out of nowhere, a bank CEO emailed me back. We met, we clicked, and he gently explained that banks do not finance films. Then he pointed at a poster on his wall.
His bank sponsored a Ferrari race at the Nürburgring.
A few weeks later I was trackside, handing a trophy to a young driver, chatting with Niki Lauda and Alain Prost, live on German TV. Still no film. Eleven euros to my name. Somehow a VIP.
That weekend taught me two things. I needed a lot more money. And a no can drop you somewhere far better than the yes you were chasing.
A year later in Cannes, I pitched the same project to a big Hollywood producer. He listened. Closely. Suspiciously closely. Years later, half asleep on a flight, I watched a film that felt oddly familiar and spotted his name in the credits. Flattered. Robbed. But mostly flattered.
So now I protect my ideas. And I stopped treating a no as a verdict.
Swipe through the whole ridiculous story, then tell me: what’s the rejection that secretly redirected your life?
