The film was inspired after Jason W. Schaver watched Mark Duplass' SXSW 2015 Keynote speech and said to do a $3 short film with your friends and write it using things you have available to you. Jason's mom owns a flower shop and once joked it was a slow month because no one was getting married or dying. Jason thought this would make an interesting short film.
The character "Mildred" was named after a nice elderly lady that lived across from Jason W. Schaver's childhood home. She passed away in 1992.
Jason W. Schaver's girlfriend (Kate S. Johnson) plays the girlfriend of his real life friend (Evan Atherton). They are scheduled to play a couple in his upcoming feature "I Don't Recall" as well.
The name of the song used in the film was named "Rumpustown" because it was untitled and composer Evan Atherton just told Jason to come up with a title for it.
The hospital scenes were shot in the hospital simulation room at Black Hawk College.
