Trivia
The featurette was the graduation project for Haynes from Brown University, where he studied Semiotics in the English Department with Professor Michael Silverman, a series of courses he later described as a mixture of Marx Freud, and Feminism.

This short film screened in Austin in September 2003 at Cinematexas 8, a short film festival with Todd in attendance. It is a must see for Haynes fans. The young actor who plays Rimbaud is a real hottie. Todd watched the film with us and told us Laura Linney, who went to Brown with him in the 80's, is an extra in the opening dance scene.
