Production of the film was impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada; however, as principal photography had already been completed, the shutdown mainly impacted tasks, such as editing and post-production work, that could more easily be done remotely.[2]
The film is slated to premiere at the 2020 Toronto International Film Festival.[3]
