The production of the film was problematic. Eddie Stenberg was originally hired to direct the film, but in the middle of production the director was changed to Thure Bahne. It is known that producer T. J. Särkkä was also involved in completing the direction of the film. Särkkä later stated in his own words, that the film turned out to be "damn bad".[2] In the evaluations of contemporary critics, it was generally stated that the change of makers has affected the final result of the film,[2] and later in connection with the film's television premiere, it was assessed that "nothing works in the film, not the drama, not the characters, not to mention the directing."[3]
