What's left behind the scenes
- The effect of blurry, smeared frames was achieved by filming through glass and champagne flutes.
- In the helicopter scene, the head of special effects initially launched a drone with a flashlight attached and filmed it, and the image of the helicopters was added to the shot later.
- The action takes place in a village called Vanga. One of the film's producers grew up in a village with that name.
- Jesper Barkselius performed all the stunts himself and flew the plane.
- The film's production was partially funded through crowdfunding. It was necessary to raise the equivalent of $35,000, which was achieved in less than 24 hours. Within a month, the equivalent of $91,000 was raised – the largest amount, at that time, ever raised through crowdfunding in Sweden.
- The film was shot using cameras with lenses manufactured in the USSR and East Germany. The director personally fitted them with diaphragms, which made them resemble old anamorphic lenses. The modification of 8 lenses cost less than $700.
- To appear as though his character Alex was 16 years old, Kristoffer Nördenrut lost 20 kg. Four weeks later, he was given three months to gain weight and build muscle mass, as he was to portray a 28-year-old Alex on screen.
- The number 199 is visible on the church wall. This is a reference to a psalm with the same name as the film's original title.
- Filming began in May and lasted so long that snow had fallen before it ended. For the final scenes, the snow had to be cleared, as the plot required it to be midsummer.
- The church in the film is shown realistically, as it exists in reality, in the form of interior sets, a 1:8 scale model, and a 3D model.
- After the first cut, the film's duration was 2 hours and 45 minutes. The original was 40 minutes longer.
- The scene in which a car crashes into the back of a yellow Saab was the first one on the shooting schedule. The cameraman was so nervous that he forgot to press the 'Record' button. You can notice that the Saab is already damaged before the collision.
