The film was originally envisioned by Christiansen as an animated feature that would dramatize all of the stories in Bidini's original book; however, after failing to secure sufficient funding to make a feature, he proceeded to make the short film version.[1] The film is set to a song written by Bidini and Selina Martin, and performed by Bidini, Martin, Barry Mirochnick, Ford Pier and Martin Tielli.

The film premiered at the 2009 Calgary International Film Festival.

The film was named to the Toronto International Film Festival's annual year-end Canada's Top Ten list for 2009.[2]
