Trivia:

Is inspired by the actual arrest of fourteen young hard rock musicians in March 2003 who were accused of Satanism and shaking the foundations of Islam, and subsequently sentenced to jail. Because of the inflammatory content, the film was refused shooting permits for almost all of its locations, including a Moroccan courtroom which had to be reconstructed in a church in Casablanca at the very last minute.
