Trivia
The film was originally titled "Imaginarium" until the band chose to change the name to prevent mix ups with other media.

Goofs
Tom's (age 10) toy airplane disappear and reappears between shots. Tom falls asleep with the airplane in his arms, but when the window opens, Tom's arms are lying on both sides, with no airplane, and back again.

Quotes
Ann - age 73: When you get old enough you don't fear death anymore, you wait for it. And, after a while, you hope for it, even if you don't admit IT. Do you know why? Because losing your mind before you go is worse than dying.

Crazy credits
The film was dedicated to the director's daughters

One of the most underestimated movies

It's achilles heel is that this movie is so unknown that I first encountered this film was by mistake, while i was just searching new 2013 trailers. this movie is definitely overcomes most of the movies from the years 2012\2013!

This film is one of the most interesting films i've ever seen.

The plot is really unexpected but if you pay enough attention for details you'll realize how the entire plot and all characters are fitted together despite that the scenes are pretty much scattered and not realistic. but it's how the people's imagination works, especially if a person has a Dementia.

I'll definitely highly recommend my friend to watch it!

I salute for the makes of the movie and who came up with the story.
