As previously mentioned, the film is based on a true story, that of Mahtob. Years after what happened, the young woman revealed:
“When my family left our home on August 1, 1984, I had no reason to suspect that our trip would be anything more than a 15-day vacation with my father’s relatives in Iran. If I had had the wisdom of age, perhaps I would have had, like my mother, a hunch that my father was setting in motion a much more sinister plan.
