The film was produced by Darko Popov through Vertigo Visual in coproduction with Focus Pocus Films (North Macedonia) and Caretta Films (Cyprus). The Macedonian Film Agency supported the project with 200,000 EUR / 12.3 m MKD in 2016.

The project was selected for industry events such as Sarajevo FF’s CineLink Co-production Market, Balkan Film Market (winner of Best Pitch Award), Sources2 and MIDPOINT script development programmes, as well as Karlovy Vary IFF’s Works In Progress.
