None of the cast or crew had any experience in film-making prior to the movie.
The film was shot during June 2008. Hence the dialog Teymur, Vahid, Hikmet and Murad are having about football was a real discussion about the Euro 2008 games.
Real life dean of students of BTAL may be seen when Teymur exits Mr.Rizvan's room.
According to the screenplay, students were supposed to play football on the field. But due to the fact that the field lacked goals, it was decided that they'd play basketball instead.
It took almost 50 takes to shoot the entire fight scene.
