It was produced by Norman Studios and filmed on location in Boley, Oklahoma.[1] The film is presumed to be lost with only fragments known to have survived.[1]

It was an early race film, featuring an African American cast and intended for African American audiences.[2] A poster for the film is in the collection of the National Museum of American History.[2]
