Kenya doesn't have much of an infrastructure for hosting a film.

My taste in films doesn't lead financers to think they are going to make a zillion dollars.

My choice of films has never been governed by money. That is perhaps why I don't have a very fancy bank account. I'd rather get respect and creative satisfaction through my work than just earn money.

Movie studios are owned by giant corporations. They care about money; they don't care about movies.

First of all, what in this world does not revolve around money? But money is a big part of film, unlike a lot of other art forms.

If African film makers had one-tenth the amount commanded by film makers the world over - even the amount used by so-called shoestring film makers - I think we would see quite an explosion of African films on the world scene.

We all do films believing in them completely, but sometimes, the audiences like what we like, and other times, they don't.

I also don't like films that are made just to make money, no this kind of film I don't like.

People are very reluctant to invest unless they know it's going to be a sure thing, and let's face it: film is never a sure thing.

There have been movies like 'Paranormal Activity' or 'Blair Witch Project' in Hollywood that showed you could do movies with little or no money. It doesn't prevent them from creating larger than life spectacles as well.
