Milena Damyanovic (also spelt Damjanovic) produced and directed the film. The executive producer was Caroline Jones. The film was released in 1974 and premiered at the 1975 International Women's Film Festival, the first of its kind in Australia and a one-off event. Initiated by the Sydney Women's Film Group, IWFF events were held in capital cities around the country.

Other dancers included Euphemia ("Phemie") Bostock, Wayne Nicol, and later Lucy Jumawan.
