Production

Writer Scott Lew suffers from ALS. According to The Hollywood Reporter, he wrote early drafts of the script through dictation; after his condition worsened, he was limited to pointing at letters and words. Lew wanted to focus on the theme of an unhappy adult whose ex-girlfriend forces him to reflect on their teenage years, a more creative time in his life. Katee Sackhoff, who served as co-producer, had a hand in the casting.
