Production
[edit]In February 2012, Andrew Kooman was adapting a screenplay version of his play She Has a Name.[2] The idea of a 'stage-to-film adaptation' of the play was also independently suggested by Pat Donnelly of the Montreal Gazette.[3] In 2014, Shari Aspinall, Kooman and his younger brothers, Daniel and Matthew, scouted locations in Cambodia in preparation for the film.[4]
Principal photography on the film began in November 2015 in Bangkok, Thailand and ended on January 22, 2016.[5][6]
