It was produced by Stephen Corvini Fremantle Media Australia, written by playwright Katherine Thomson and directed by Khoa Do, and is based on the true story of Schapelle Corby. It is based on the book Sins of the Father: The untold story behind Schapelle Corby's ill-fated drug run by Eamonn Duff. This source was later to be discredited via a series of legal actions. In the first case the judge awarded $50,000 damages for breach of copyright in the unauthorised use of family photographs. Defamation cases followed, and in October 2015 family members settled for an undisclosed amount.
