Production

The idea for the film came about when Jordana Spiro was looking to make a feature about the experiences of foster care kids and what it's like to age out of the system. She had been a volunteer at Peace4Kids, an LA-based foster youth organization, and wanted to write the script with someone who had a personal background in the subject. Through Peace4Kids, she was introduced to writer Angelica Nwandu.

The film was the recipient of a fellowship from the Adrienne Shelly Foundation, a nonprofit organization that awards grants to female actors, writers, and/or directors of short films, feature films, and documentaries.

Filming was completed in 28 days, with exterior shots done in Philadelphia and New Jersey.
