Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
One of the few Canadian films to explicitly explore gay male sexuality outside urban Montreal/Toronto contexts, using the Northwest Territories as metaphor for emotional and geographic marginalization.
The Mann twins (Brad and Todd) were cast specifically for their identical appearance — their real-life twin dynamic was largely improvised during tense scenes.
