Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Neal based the film on the 2007 murder of Ilan Halimi, then stripped away all political context to focus purely on perpetrator psychology.
The 80-minute runtime was deliberately chosen to match the average French high school class period, framing the murder as academic exercise.
