Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Shot in Toronto's Morningside neighborhood, the film casts actual community members as extras—Dias wanted the location to be a character, not a backdrop.
The three-intersecting-lives structure deliberately mirrors Gillo Pontecorvo's 'Battle of Algiers'—Dias has cited it as the film's structural godfather.
