In a conversation with Film Companion, the filmmaker shared that she has never encountered any trauma in her relationships. Reflecting on the film's themes, she expressed, "A lot of the issues we've addressed resonate because, in some way, we've all lived through them. I've been fortunate to experience only loving relationships, devoid of trauma. The aim was to portray how, within the confines of marriage and socially accepted relationships, one can discover freedom, self-identity, and pursue aspirations. I've personally lived that journey."
