Made after Deed Poll (2004) and before Alex und der Löwe (2010), this was the second (out of three) films that Barbara Kowa and André Schneider have worked on together.
Filmed in 2006, this film wasn't finished until 2012. As of 2014 the film has only been shown twice in Austria and in excerpts during live performances by Barbara Kowa, because the rights to adapt Jean Cocteau's play are not cleared.
