It took Jeffrey Gold over five months to get the movie off the ground due to inclement weather conditions, equipment access, and transportation issues to and from Little Gransden, Cambridgeshire, England.

Quotes
Narrator: Perhaps Eli Khamarov captured it best when he wrote: A sacred privilege is flight. Those who share in it have become guardians of the earth: Have seen what the gods have seen. Flight reminds us of our fragile nature And the extent of our temporary presence. It is a sacred thing, A reminder of where we were not meant to be, A reminder of where we are, Easily consumed, Our waxen wings lie within the perilous grasp Of our distracted star.
