The core crew (writers, director, cinematographer, editor, and actors) and all of the cast were under the age of 18.
The entire cast of actors played adult characters, even though 100% of the cast was under 18.
Even though principle photography only took 34 days, the filming spanned 7 months due to production mistakes, filming conditions and schedule conflicts.
The entire film was only lit with four 100 watt house-hold light-bulbs, a lantern and various flashlights.
"Voice-cracking" was a problem among the actors due to the cast being aged between 11 and 17.
