Did you know

• The ambassador had 'SEMA' written on his bulletproof vest; it means "Son Excellence Monsieur l'Ambassadeur", or "His Excellency Míster the Ambassador" in English.

• The movie could not be filmed in Afghanistan under the Taliban regime as they don't allow foreign movie productions, so the movie was entirely shot in Morocco instead, mostly Casablanca, and Kenitra for the airport scenes.

• Eva, the character played by Lyna Khoudri is fictional; her real-life counterpart was Wali Mohammadi, a Afghani-French jurist and translator.
