• The film is based on Allison Anders' personal experience when she was raped at the age of 12 and then brutally manhandled by a stepfather until she ran away from home at the age of 17. The rape scene in the film was actually filmed in exactly the same house where Anders was raped as a child.
• The title is taken from a song by Nick Drake.
• Anders couldn't get the necessary funding to shoot the film on 35mm so she was forced to shoot on digital video.

Hard subject matter sensitively portrayed
The most excruciating story of rape...
Was the house good to you? No, but that wasn't the house's fault.
