▸ Production

Co-producer Grace Hughes-Hallett pitched the idea for the film in 2013 to Raw TV, and was the original director of the documentary. Of her removal from the position, Hughes-Hallett has said "I started Three Identical Strangers as the director. In 2025, I hope I would have remained the director, but it was a while ago and I was a young woman. That is the truth of it. I’ll leave that there. Any young female filmmaker can probably relate."
