Levenberg is more popular as a theatre actress and has been on stage play since age six. Ellen was her first lead role in a movie. To her, the issue portrayed in the film is one that she is sensitive to and really wanted to be among the people who will tell the story. It is one of the many that has never really been told in South Africa. Levenberg brought her character to life with her performance being a real human rights activist herself.
