Astro Shaw and HBO Asia produced the film adaptation with full support from the National Film Development Corporation Malaysia (FINAS) in association with CJ Entertainment,

“Our gratitude also goes out to the novelist Tan Twan Eng who won the 2012 Man Asian Literary Prize for the novel which the film had been adapted from. Thanks to Richard Smith for the perfect script, to the cast Lee Sin-je, Hiroshi Abe and Sylvia Chang,” said Astro Shaw and Nusantara head Raja Jastina Raja Arshad.
