Before Keira Knightley was confirmed for the lead role, her character Megan could have been played by Anne Hathaway. However, due to the fact that Anne could not combine her schedule with another project, her role was played by Keira Knightley. The reason for the conflict for Hathaway was an invitation from Christopher Nolan to work on his film "Interstellar" (Interstellar) and shoot in "Once Upon a Time in New York". Another contender for the main role was Rebecca Hall, who refused "Little" in favor of "Preference". Filming began in early June 2013 in Seattle. They lasted not so long, continuing until the beginning of July of the same year. A year later, on July 16, 2014, the first trailer for the film "Mala" was released. The film was included in the competition program of the Sundance International Film Festival of Independent Film, this became known back in December 2013. The world premiere of the film took place there (January 17, 2014). Both at the festival and at the previous screening, the film received very positive reviews.
