The film was originally intended to be one of a trilogy of 30-minute short films shown together. However, the two other films, Mimic and Impostor, were turned into full-length features, and the project was canceled.[1]
The film had its world premiere as part of the closing ceremony of the smallest theatre in the UK, La Charrette, on 23 February 2008, an event organised by Mark Kermode of The Culture Show. Kenneth Branagh attended the screening.[2] After this, there were 2 other recorded screenings of this film. The first at the National Media Museum shortly after the premiere, again with Branagh in attendance, and the second in 28 October 2023 at the FilmBath Festival, with Danny Boyle and John Hodge in attendance.[3]

It leads to a string of unusual events where beings from space come to visit Chesterman and his friends and show that all is not as things seem.
