The short films were scored by Emily Goodden, Christine Fellows, Jason Tait and Steve Bates; additional contributors on the CD included John K. Samson and Leanne Zacharias, as well as an archival recording of Al Purdy.

The film series won the New Vision Award at the 2005 Copenhagen International Documentary Festival.
