Acting debut of sports announcer Paul Van Scott, who plays the off camera interviewer and also appears uncredited as a protester.
Director Greg St. Pierre's Nissan Frontier was used as the mosquito sprayer. He drove it himself in the protest scene out of safety concerns as it needed to pass close to the actors' feet.
The mosquito sprayer truck took some time to achieve the desired effect and and wasn't finished until the night before it was needed.
On the first day of shooting, the director's actress sister surprised him on set. Some of the crew had arranged for her to be flown in. She was used in the scene.
The opening interviews were entirely improvised.
