Anecdotes

There was not enough money left in the budget to re-shoot some scenes that turned out too dark. Had these scenes been with light in the film correctly exposed, the movie would have had another ending, although the story would have been basically the same.

One of the directors requested that Peter Bjerg get a little haircut for the role of Kim. Even though he loved his hairstyle, he needed to see more of his face for the camera.

The casting for Kim was not easy. After screen tests for over one hundred boys, either the look or the acting was not right. Just weeks before filming began, Lasse Nielsen's co-writer recommended Peter Bjerg, the twelve-year-old son of a fellow psychologist, and he was just perfect for the role.
