The fall of the Berlin Wall was a major influence for the director to create this film before 2023.
The main character's actual birthday had nothing to do with the title.
The entire film was shot in two days with a skeleton crew. Some of the actors had to slate themselves. The microphone was un-manned and set down most of the time during recording.
Andy Taylor, Scott Martin Thomas, and Rick Lobato were asked to do their parts just two days before shooting. All their parts were done within three hours total.
The actor who plays the wife, Nina Cleaver, is actually married to the character Greg, Andrew Cleaver.
