Production

The film was an idea of producer and actor Nigel Davey. Set in a coffee shop. He also told Kevin Powis about several other ideas that could take place in this setting, after which the decision was made to give other people the chance to collaborate. They put out a call for stories and quickly received over 150 submissions from which they chose the eight best entries which Powis worked into a screenplay they could use to request funding.

After funding was secured, Nigel Davey contacted actors and while negotiations were ongoing Powis tailored the script to the individual actors.
