Menhaj Huda directed the film 'Kidulthood' Working with his friend George Issac Menhaj was able to get the total finance up to only 650,000, but he still thought this would be enough to make and produce the film. A problem that they would probably have come across was even though they were working with the production company 'Stealth', this was going to be their first movie, and exhibition companies wouldn't know how the film was goin to turn out.
Menhaj had another problem because his budget was lower than he thought as he had pay the writer's fee, the producer's fee, and some legal fees, he had to make cuts elsewhere, "We decided to shoot on 35mm and finish on High Definition, so if the film was a complete pile of rubbish we wouldn't be wasting money on getting a print". This would make the quality of the film not that good if they had a higher budget, but it is cheaper this way for them and even more if the film was a flop.
