Producer Dustinn Craig and director of photography Michael Chin discuss a scene in which the camera is rigged under the wagon. In order to see what the camera was filming, the crew set up a video tap, which displays the image on a monitor. Craig and Chin sat in the wagon as it bounced along, covering themselves with an old blanket because it was impossible to see the monitor in the bright sunlight.

This dance was filmed in the Chiricahua Mountains. It was significant to the dancers, Chiricahua people from the Mescalero Reservation in New Mexico, to dance on their ancestral land. Traditionally, the dance would have taken place before conflicts, but the Chiricahua did not consider it a war dance. The term “war” is not part of the Apache terminology, and the dance was intended as a prayer for the protection of Apache people who risked their lives for their families.
