Production

Anders based the film on her own experience as a young girl. Anders said she had tried to deal with her rape at age twelve "in therapy, through acting out sexually, through self-medication … by every means possible, but I still was in a dark place." The film was shot on digital video. The camera used was the Sony DSR-500. This is Anders' third film to center on music industry figures, after Grace of My Heart and Sugar Town.

Rock band Sonic Youth provided the film's score. Several hits from 1960s band The Left Banke are also featured. Kristen Vigard provided Kim Dickens' singing voice.
