The film was shot on Super 8 mm film and edited at a public-access television cable TV station, with Linklater starring and handling all production duties. Outsider musician Daniel Johnston also appears in the film.
Release
The film never received a widespread release. It is only available on DVD and Blu-ray as a bonus feature on Slacker from The Criterion Collection.
