Production

Walter Deuber first developed the project under the title Die Schlange hat nicht gelogen, drawing on the story of a family affected by AIDS. As the film evolved, he reshaped the material into a fictional narrative with Josy Meier as co-writer. The production made use of Sicilian locations linked to the story behind the film, and was shot on a minimal budget in Swiss German and Italian after no German or Italian co-producer was secured.
