Production

The film was a longtime passion project for Sandy Smolan. He first got the idea for the film in 1983 after moving to Moose Lake, Minnesota from New York for a job and wanting to do a feature about the community where he lived. For a few years, he could not envision what the story would be about until he remembered he was given Letters From the Country, a short story collection written by Carol Bly shortly before leaving New York.

Filming took place over 30 days in November 1986, in Sandstone, Minnesota with post-production completed in August 1987. The budget was $1.2 million (equivalent to $3.52 million in 2025).
