Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Shot in Vancouver with a micro-budget, this was Richard de Klerk's breakout before Archetype and Repeaters. The entire prison release sequence was filmed in a single day.
The film's structure deliberately mirrors classic tragedy—Mickey's 'fresh start' is doomed from frame one, with each act of trust he extends becoming ammunition for the final confrontation.
