- Cast the Expert: The entire cast is made up of professional dancers recruited through various social media and a professional DJ. Only two actors had any previous experience acting. Eva is played by Lea Vlamos, who inspired the film's concept by inviting Gaspar Noe to a vogue.
- Inspiration for the Work: Noe based this film on a news story about an after-party gone wrong where the dancers had their drinks spiked. Mercifully, no terrible events occurred during it.
- In addition, he was inspired by vogue dancing, and his initial plan was to make a documentary about it.
- Throw It In!: Outside of a basic concept, the entire film was improvised by Noe and the actors. Noe gave the actors free rein to decide what their characters would do.
- Tuckerization: Sofia Boutella's character, Selva, is named after Gaspar Noe's grandmother.
The film's American distributor, A24, gave the film a very brief run on VHS, topping at 100 copies for $40
