Trivia

Unable to afford a helicopter the crew had to carry the camera equipment on their backs, 3,500 feet to the top of the Cuillins in Skye. They did this twice, once in the snow and once in the summer.

The word 'seachd' is Gaelic for 'seven'. The film itself portrays seven different stories (counting Angus/Aonghas own story).

Aonghas Padraig Caimbeul is also a noted Gaelic novelist, whose work has brought him critical claim from outwith the Gaelic speaking community.

The ceilidh scene features the wife and children of Angus Peter Campbell, who plays Grandfather, as well as the parents of Padruig Moireasdan, who plays Aonghas. The man who stands and sings the song, 'An Ataireachd Ard', is in fact Padruig's father.

The Inaccessible Pinnacle is known to many climbers as the "In Pinn". This English name has been displacing the proper Gaelic name which is "an Stac" or "an Caisteal". It is on top of Sgùrr Dearg, and one of the few Munros (Scottish hills over 3,000 feet (914.4 m)) which requires rock climbing to reach the summit. The other Munros only require walking/hiking to reach the summit, so the In Pinn is an anomaly for so called Munro Baggers.
