Abtahi admitted to nerves ahead of viewing the scene with his wife. \"I simply felt, 'God, I wish it's not x-rated.' And also when I did see it and saw exactly how it was fired and the music and also the sluggish motion and also the attention to detail and [Mousa's] eyes, it was so f-- ing beautiful. I'm so honored to be a part of it.\"
