Funding
The production was halted when Life Begins Film Ltd, ran out of funding before filming was completed. The Administrators, 'ReSolve Advisory', later sold all rights, materials and equipment relating to full-length feature film, after a corporate restructure of the team following advice from Penningtons Manches Cooper in 2022. The acquisition of the movie by Heracles Productions Limited, would mean production could continue to complete the film for release sometime in 2023.
