Curiosidades

Production

Director Teddy Mattera explained that one of the reasons for shooting Max and Mona was the dearth of comedic films aimed primarily at the black population in South Africa. According to the filmmaker: "The comedy in this country has always been made by white people where they laugh at black people…So I thought it would be a challenge to write a story where we would be laughing at ourselves."
