Women know when they've got the menopause but men don't quite know. They know it afterwards.

This is one of the factors that also made me very much want to make this film, apart from the fact that I loved it. If the boy hadn't been Jewish and the man hadn't been Muslim, it wouldn't have made any difference to the film. I don't think it's relevant, really.

My desire, my passion, was to help moms with practical encouragement.
