behind the scenes
Oh, hi there!
Independently produced. Minnesota-made.
Minnesota Proud
From the support network to the natural beauty, you really cannot find a better place to film than our home state of Minnesota.
The Script
‘Silly Little Wounds’ is a heartfelt, intimate, and authentic exploration of the way relationships change as we enter middle age, a slow burning slice-of-life piece. The script features intricate and well-developed characters, naturalistic dialogue, and subtly profound themes of life and the different paths we take.
Landing the role
We saw hundreds of auditions to land on the special mix that is this incredible cast.
We couldn't imagine a better team to tell this story! The incredible dedication from our leads, the energy and joy of our supporting characters, and of course the amazing background talent! So grateful for the way everyone showed up to tell this story.
MAKE IT
HAPPEN

Roll Camera
Oh man. When the camera rolls, it rolls all the way down the block. Such times. Such excitement
Shooting took place over the course of 25 days in the Summer and Fall of 2023.
Shot with a camera of some sort, and a main crew of about so many people, the principal photography for Silly Little Wounds was captured with great joy and love.
The time we shared. The people we touched. We'll never forget. And neither will they.
THAT'S A WRAP
