Production
[edit]Petr Pýcha has written radio play inspired by a story he read on an internet. His play was refused for vulgarity and he decide to rewrite it to a film screenplay. Pýcha saw Omerzu's previous film A Night Too Young and decided to ask Omerzu to direct the film. Omerzu liked it and started preparations of the film. Casting for main roles took very long Omerzu wanted non-actors who can find themselves in their characters. The film was mostly shot in North Bohemia.[7]
