Some cast members were untrained, non-professional actors. In the case of the woman who plays the deceased's widow, it's eerie how unaffected the scene is before you realize that it's reality. (The woman is widowed in real life. Her husband was a manhole worker.)
Court is the official entry from India under foreign language film for the Academy Award 2016.
Was filmed in 45 days, whereas the casting process took 6 months.
According to actress Geetanjali Kulkarni, each scene took 30-40 takes to get right.
In Spain was only released in 7 theaters. Widest release: 8 theaters. Only projected in subtitled version.
