Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Trivia

At 62 minutes, this barely qualifies as feature-length—originally shot as a proof-of-concept that accidentally got distribution.

Cultural

The 'six degrees' inheritance premise predates similar viral scavenger-hunt tropes in films like *The Ultimate Gift*—but with way more petty sibling energy.
