The film is about the residence of the former Danish governor in Tranquebar/Tharangampadi, which from 1620-1845 was a Danish trading station in India. Today the house is owned by the Government of Tamil Nadu. From 2009–2011, it was thoroughly restored by the Pondicherry chapter of INTACH (Indian National Trust for Art and Cultural Heritage), who also produced this film.

Centre for Comparative Cultural Studies, ToRS, University of Copenhagen and who in 2015 received rights to store and distribute the movie.
