For me, I like to do projects that excite me and bring a challenge, I mean, every film has its challenges big and small but working on a project like ‘Fifteen,’ I’m forced to be way outside my comfort zone. That makes me feel very much alive and the spirit of invention is thriving on a shoot like this.”
