What some people do not know

Relying on a low budget of $50K, the movie was shot over five nights in a single location with dialogue that was largely improvised.

Instead of the actors receiving scripts, they would each receive only a small paragraph (that only they would see) as their goal for the day. This allowed for the story to unfold naturally and create genuine reactions in the other actors.

The reason the cameras are so shaky was not so much a stylistic choice as it was giving the actors the freedom to go anywhere they wished to.
