Summer Survivors is a 100% Lithuanian production, produced by Marija Razgutė through M-films in coproduction with Klementina Remeikaitė through After School. The Lithuanian Film Centre is supporting. The budget is 325,000 EUR.

Principal photography will wrap on 25 September 2017 an the theatrical release is planned for autumn 2018.
