Production
According to Aaron, "We shot the movie over four weeks on the Lepeska family farm in Montfort, Wisconsin." Aaron confirmed in another interview, "The writer and director, Ben Caird, his family farm is actually where we shot it at. Ben's British, but his mother is from Wisconsin, and their family farm was the farm we used in the movie in Montfort. So that's what brought us out here." Early in development, Edi Gathegi was to have portrayed Paulie.
