Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The titular lemming was not CGI — a real animal was used, and its on-screen 'suicide' jump was carefully staged with a hidden platform.
Moll cited Buñuel's bourgeois satires and Polanski's 'apartment trilogy' as direct influences, particularly the invasion of domestic space.
