Shot on vibrant green farms in the West Midlands in the United Kingdom, the movie's gorgeous backdrop is a massive highlight and takes things to another level.
The way the cinematographer has captured the scenes, including the one where the children ride their bicycles on the country road or the one where the animals run free after Matt forgets to close the farm gate, is absolutely stunning to witness.
