– PRODUCTION NOTES

The author of this book [on which the film is based on] said: ”Do not have any children if you’re not going to love them. They’ll grow up and will write shit about you.” Generally this story is about growing up, about boys who have started the game and don’t understand the game has become real and there aren’t any game levels to re-start. A moment of decision will come when they have to decide about big things, choose between life and death.
