Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Shot in 10 days on a budget that wouldn't cover one day of a studio thriller. Director Elena Altman funded it through emergency medical bill savings after her own psychiatric hospitalization.
Released during 2018's wave of 'unreliable woman' indies, but rare in centering working-class mental illness without romanticization or villainy.
