Production
The film was produced by Moscow-based animation studio RIM, with participation from studios in Canada, Spain, Peru, and Estonia.[5][6] In May 2015, the film, then in production, drew interest from foreign buyers at the Toronto International Film Festival Market.[7] Since the film was planned for international release, the initial voiceovers were performed in English.[8]
A significant part of the budget was invested by the Chinese holding Star Alliance Media, which planned a wide release in China across five thousand cinemas. Quackerz became the first Russian project to receive financial support from China.[9][10]
