Production

The film was written by Sutton and Buitenhuis, inspired in part by the death of Sutton's father. The introduction of Hamlet as a defining motif was introduced later. They wrote a broad story outline, but allowed the actors to improvise much of their dialogue after working with them to establish the characters' backstories.

The film was shot in Cambridge, Ontario, in early 2009.
