Although this film contains several scenes with shots of the lead characters driving a car, neither Kim Sønderholm nor Claus Lund, actually had a driver's license and therefore did not drive for real.
Photographer Dennis Bahnson received a hard bruising knock above the eye while shooting a scene with a suitcase falling down a lot of stairs. The suitcase hit the camera, broke an expensive lens and nearly knocked the photographer half-blind for hours. The scene, although it did not turn out exactly as planned, is actually used in the final cut of the film.
The actor who plays the part of Michael, Kim Sønderholm suffered from illness due to the surprising heat of the Danish summer on the entire first nine days of the shooting.
One of the big storage facilities that sets the location for the end scene of the film, collapsed in a storm. Another, the one in which the shootout occurs, was torn down by the Danish government for having been deemed too hazardous. Both of these incidents took place shortly after the shooting of the film was completed.
Jim's apartment in the film is in fact the apartment of the actor who plays Jim, Claus Lund. In a few scenes in the background there hangs a poster from a theater-play named "Time and the Conways". This is the official poster from a play he was in a year earlier.
