Reacting to this, Rose said it will be an emotional, yet beautiful story of how he had survived the industry for this long.
“The documentary will detail my life when I was young and moving to Durban and all the struggles I went through. It will feature some of the industry people I have worked with who will also give testimonials, share some of their inspirational stories and experiences with me. We will visit the places where I have worked and also to explore my experiences there.
“The truth on what has been widely written about me out there will finally be in the public space and I will be able to share my side of the story. This will be a tell-all story, as sometimes I have been misunderstood and written badly especially on social media and papers,” he said.
“I really can’t believe that I am still holding it down 24 years later,” he said.
“This documentary will give the young ones guidelines on how to survive in the media industry and how to make it. This documentary will also teach people that patience and the undying fighting spirit always win,” said Rose.
