Australian? American? Canadian? What was it?


I like the movie and enjoyed the gritty city scenes but where was this movie supposed to take place? The accents were Australian and American, right? I think there was some British, too.


The money looked more Canadian to me than Australian. (but I'm not sure about that.)

Was that intentional? I found it a little distracting.

It was made in New Zealand, so I suppose the money was from New Zealand.

Chad Taylor( the novelist from whence came this story) usually sets his stories in Auckland - his version of Auckland. If you want to know what happened to the main character, Chad has just published the sequel to Heaven, "The Church Of John Coltrane".

It was filmed in New Zealand. This I know because my husband was an extra in it and he still hasnt ever seen it!! He's in the explosion scene.
