Co-creator/Director Fred Grivois described the film as Karl Marx meets John Wick (2014), or Kill Bill: Vol. 1 (2003) meets The Measure of a Man (2015). He got the original idea after watching the latter film and thinking that today's youth wouldn't necessarily understand socialism and unionism and that he could come up with a fun way to explain these concepts.
Lead actress Margot Bancilhon underwent two hours of daily hair & makeup prep for the role, in addition to a full day to reapply her fake tattoos every ten days.
Constance Labbé, who appears in the opening scene, is not only series regular Guillaume Labbé's sister (who is arresting and beating her up in the scene), but was also the lead actress in series director Fred Grivois's previous TV series, Piste noire (2023).
Lead actress Margot Bancilhon underwent six months of Thai kickboxing training and two weeks of stunt preparation for the role. She performed nearly all her whole stunts except for a couple of shots where a stunt double took over.
Every episode of the first season opens with the same 2017 quote from then French president Emmanuel Macron advising young people to read the works of Karl Marx, the "father of communism". As such, each episode is titled after a quote from Marx. The series having been conceived to last three seasons and a wrap-up film, the following two seasons are meant to be themed after Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Friedrich Nietzsche respectively and the finale after an undetermined modern philosopher.
