Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Cultural

Bodnia and Gernandt had previously starred together in Dutch crime cinema, lending their chemistry an unsettling lived-in violence.

Memorable

The film's original title referenced Pulp Fiction ironically; the final cut strips away that irony entirely.
