Addiction is one of the film's underlining themes. Co-producer Ferda says of the film's inspiration: "this film is of such importance, in spreading awareness and educating the public about the vulnerabilities of addiction. I myself lost a dear friend to addiction and feel this delicately woven story will highlight and educate about the dangers as well as entertain."
