Thanks for the info Tim. It was Mike Seymour that mentioned the MPC Vancouver connection in the podcast.
The total budget was circa 40 million and I think I heard along the way that Glassworks started on it long before MPC and treated it as a passion piece so the director got a lot for his budget! :) I'll definitely chat to Henning as the movie is a stunning achievement no matter who did what. I'd imagine it was a dream job for Henning as the art direction is right up his strasse.
