Inspired by the writing of Oscar Wilde, Evelyn Waugh and Anton Chekhov.
The film was originally set at the Zircon Ball, but the name was changed to the Pat Nixon Memorial Ball.
The film went through three titles, first it was called 'To Fall In Love...' then it was changed to 'The Tryst,' and finally it was renamed 'Scarlet or: A Postmodernist Deconstruction of Young Love Under the Corpocracy of Late-Capitalism.'
The 7th short film collaboration between actor Richard Walters and director Calyx Passailaigue.
