The shepherds used come from Scotland. Director Basset actually wanted to work with Rottweilers , but this breed does not have the stamina for this kind of filming. According to his own statement, Basset was also used as a stuntman during the shoot :
"I also wanted a few shots from the victim's point of view but there were difficulties with that too. I eventually decided to just do it myself. I can tell you when those dogs bite you, they do not let go. My padding was covered in holes but I think it was worth it! "
“I also wanted some settings from the victim's perspective, but there were difficulties with that. I finally decided to do it myself. I can tell you one thing: if these dogs bite you, they won't let go. My upholstery was full of holes, but I think it was worth it! "
The film is also offered in a cut version that has been shortened to 87 minutes and is already approved for young people aged 16 and over. The unabridged version was checked by a team of experts with regard to the protection of minors and its relevance under criminal law. The results were recorded in a SPIO / JK report.
