The disastrous car crash of Maureen wasn't the only one to happen during the shooting of this film. Assistant director's car rolled over in a snow covered ditch. Crew mini-van went off-road and ditched while shooting. Electro's truck got bogged down in the middle of the woods. And producer Hany Ouichou's car was totaled by a crew member when the car slipped on a patch of ice and crashed into the back of a truck. Fortunately, nobody was injured and drama was kept for the movie.
The film was shot over 8 days in mid-November of 2018, close to the Appalachian in the rural region of La Beauce in Quebec. What was set to be a late fall piece turn out to be a full on winter scenery 3 days before shooting. Temperature went as low as -26 degrees Celsius and more than 3 feet of snow accumulated on the ground. Last minute changes had to be made to costumes and gear to prevent actors and crew from freezing. Locals claimed that it was the snowiest and coldest month of November recorded in the past 35 years.
Maureen's huge pickup truck wasn't ready for the harsh condition of winter. As a consequence, the water that was in the diesel tank froze and the truck couldn't operate for more than a minute at the time. Director's father, who owned a garage for several years in the region, was called in reinforcement to get the truck in working order. He stayed on set for most of the shooting.
Actor Théodore Pellerin was cast as Jelly, but had to pull-off 2 months before the shoot after securing a lead role in Showtime's On Becoming a God in Central Florida. Emile Schneider landed the role of Jelly.
In this film, actor Joseph Delorey once again takes the role of Keven Guenette he played in Mutants, Dostie's precedent short film.
