When asked why a movie about homosexuality, the producer replied:

We pretended then as if it didn't exist in our society. Not knowing that it was gradually eating into the fabrics of the society.So, one saw it at that time and set out to discuss it via the tube. I may sound very judgmental about it but I have no apologies whatsoever. Homosexual is an evil act that our culture and religion as Africans prohibits, and so, speaking against it as a film maker is to re-echo what my society has been saying about the ugly practice."
