The first feature film by director Jaakko Pyhälä and the production company "Tambur Filmi Oy" (owned by Pyhälä and Antti Hytti).

The cast and crew spent a month on the island of Vardøya in Northern Norway. Most of the scenes were filmed in Vardø (Finnish: Vuoreija), where some spent many nights playing billiards in the basement of the island's only restaurant.

Actor Vesa-Matti Loiri said that Heikki Öljynen was one of his favorite roles to play and probably the most meaningful.
