Screenwriter Ioan Grigorescu and director Iulian Mihu held "long and resultful discussions" with George CÃÂlinescu about an adaptation of his novel, '. The writer said that he wanted the film to be made in the style of The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, a musical film. He allegedly hummed a song that the screenwriter allegedly reproduced to composer Anatol Vieru. But in fact, what Vieru uses in this song is a mode he had widely used in his earlier works from the 1960s (Cello concerto nð1, Chamber Symphony, The Struggle against Inertia). The song was played by Aurelian Andreescu and was used before the credit titles in the beginning of the film.
