The film is inspired by Rodrigo Rodrigues 's experiences during his time in the atlantaic rainforest. He stated that the spirits of the rainforest led him to write the screenplay within three days and nights during his stay.
The Goitacas remained in the area of Rio de Janeiro during the 16. Century, known for their hunting abilities. The Ministry, Campos dos Goytacazes, in the state of Rio de Janeiro, is named after them.
Only recycled material has been used to create costumes, wardrobes and set constructions for the film.
Marlon Blue remained with indigenous tribes in the amazonian rainforest during pre-production of the film.
Marlon Blue isolated himself in the amazonian rainforest for three weeks without a phone or internet and followed a strict diet in order to get a sense of what inhabitants of the rainforest go through. Babic has said that because he considers himself an introvert who prefers to have some time alone, he thought that his time of isolation would be a vacation, but towards the last week got lost and struggled due to following a trail of wild pigs.
