Inspired by the popularity of true crime movies, shows, podcasts, etc., as well as other found footage films, Tarasiuk presented the idea for the movie to writer Sean Oliver, who wrote the script. The film mixes archival and found footage, documentary style interviews, and scripted scenes, creating something new, and audiences may wonder how much of the movie is real, and how much is imagined. It's a thrill ride towards a shocking conclusion.
