This movie is a co-production between Thailand (Sparta Creative) and Laos (Lao Art Media); Ananda himself is one of the stakeholders of this movie (he is not paid for this movie but to be shared the profit of this movie if it makes money).
Some sources suggest that a director is Thai. But from its official website (http://www.sabaideemovie.com/about.html) a director is actually Anousone Sirisackda (who directed "The Scare", "The Lessons of Life" and " A Father's Heart")
