The film is starring by Jorma Tommila.Halonen has said in the 2011 interview that Ridley Scott's Blade Runner, Jean-Luc Godard's Alphaville and Terry Gilliam's Brazil served as inspirations for the film. Halonen has said that he wanted to deal with criticism of individualism and its effect on humanity in the theme of film.During the production process, the creators aimed at foreign markets, but the success both at the domestic box office and in foreign sales remained modest. Instead, the film toured many festivals, such as at the 1995 Fantasy Filmfest in Berlin. Jukka Uusitalo, Ilmari Hakala and Jouni Nikkanen won the Jussi Awards for best production design in 1996.
