What's left behind the scenes
- The film is based on the tragedy in Aurora (a suburb of Denver, Colorado, USA) on July 20, 2012, when James Holmes opened fire on the audience during the premiere of the final installment of Christopher Nolan's "The Dark Knight Rises." More than 70 people were shot, 12 of whom died. This incident became the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history and held that grim record for 4 years until the shooting at a gay nightclub in Orlando.
- The film was shot in 16 days.
