The film is a labor of love for Mike Figgis, who wrote the first draft in 1982. Five years before the film was made, a studio backed out on financing after Figgis refused to change the black Adam and white Eve to a white Adam and black Eve. Figgis eventually shot the film on his own, preselling the rights to obtain the capital, and shooting in under five weeks. He used super 16mm film and available light whenever possible.
