Shot in 1959 in San Francisco's North Beach neighborhood, the film features non-professional actors like Taylor Mead and Eric "Big Daddy" Nord, and Beat poets living in North Beach such as Bob Kaufman. Skippy Alvarez, who worked at Vesuvio's Bar and lived at The Swiss American Hotel, also appears in the film. She had just returned from attempting to bail Bob Kaufman out of jail.

The film was produced for less than $1,000 using black-and-white 16 mm 50' film cartridges left over from aerial gunnery equipment used during World War II.
