Did you know

• Although she is credited in the cast-list, Marisa Mell did not, in fact, return to movie-acting for this film, having died in 1992. The character she plays - the deceased mother of André Schneider's character - is seen only in brief flashbacks as a very young woman, in what are actually extracts from some of her films, i. e. A Diary of a Murderess (1975), The Great Swindle (1971) and Devil's Ransom (1971).

• Mike Nietomertz, who was supposed to play "Fred Brulin", was fired from the movie and replaced by Alexandre Vallès.

• Carrie Getman got the part of "Noémie Webster" after Hannah Daisy Brandt stepped out of the project and the producers couldn't meet with Allegra Curtis's requests.
