Wissenswertes

Production
Hajaig has stated that the film is his homage to American indie movies of the 1980s:
I wanted to make something with a playful spirit, a film that was fun with a left of field romance that avoided formal conventions, that moved and was resolved in progressively sillier and stranger ways - something with the same fun vibe as the films I watched in the late 1980s on VHS. Movies like the Jonathan Demme gem Something Wild, Jim McBride’s version of Breathless, and the Alec Baldwin film Miami Blues.
The film was shot in London. One large sequence was shot in the main hall of London's Natural History Museum. The 35 mm format 4k Arriflex Amira camera was chosen, as its adaptability served the indie look the film makers strove to achieve. Director of photography Ian Howes worked to ensure the film maintained a filmic and analogue styling to reference American indie films of the 1980s.
