Production

Joshua Leonard had been on the lookout for a story to be made into a movie, when he read the short story "The Lie", which was in the April 14, 2008 issue of The New Yorker. He realized that the story was a good fit for an independent film that could be made in Los Angeles, using collaborators he already knew in the area. The original short story was sixteen pages long.

The crew spent two and a half weeks shooting the film, and six months editing it. For baby Xana, the filmmakers cast Violet Long (an infant at that time), whose parents are Daniel (the film's co-producer) and Darby Long.
