Trivia

Final film of Yelena Gabrielova.

Based on the 1973 novel 'The Last Butterfly' by Canadian author Michael Jacot.

Mime Boris Hybner helped Sir Tom Courtenay to learn pantomime for his role.

Sir Tom Courtenay said filming in Terezín was very depressing because he knew what was going on there, but it helped him get under the skin of the main character.
