Wright directed and wrote the screenplay for the film as a part of her graduation course at London College of Communication. Wright produced the film by her own production company Bon Bon Lumiere along with Rosalind Steven. Funding were also provided by a fish and chip shop located at Dungeness and Romney Marsh, where most of the filming took place as London College of Communication rules state that films can be funded by voluntary donations only.

Talking about the filming locations Wright said that "I wanted to make something personal and I’ve spent a lot of time in Dungeness, because my parents have a house just down the coast from there, so it has a strong connection to my family. Also, I was always a massive fan of Derek Jarman and he spent his last years there. I just love the strangeness of it, the bleakness. The more I’ve been there, the more I fall in love with it." She also said that "Romney Marsh is an area where I spent a lot of time when I was a child. Growing up in a city such as London, it’s so confined sometimes that as a child there is no feeling of a horizon, there’s nothing beyond what you know. So for me I was so lucky to have that experience of spending a lot of time in open spaces such as Romney Marsh that I was able to gain that feeling of beyond. As a young child I was obsessed with horizons."
Music
The score for Separate We Come, Separate We Go was composed by Tom Recknell, who composed the original score titled The Birds for the film.
Reception
The film received positive reception from critics after its premiere at Cannes Film Festival. Total Film in its review said that "it's a rather sweet, very personal story about a little girl who meets lovely David Thewlis and learns to stretch her limitations." Nick de Semlyen of Empire praised Wright's direction by saying that "it's an impressive first work from someone who clearly has ambition to burn."
