"Tallulah is not based on actual events, but the story is inspired by writer-director Sian Heder's personal experiences. During a Q&A session at Sundance Film Festival (2016) where the film premiered, Heder revealed, "When I first moved out to LA, I worked as a babysitter for a lot of the high-end hotels, as my day job. I had a lot of really surreal weird experiences, and I could probably make a lot of movies. I had one in particular with a very strange mother in that same hotel room which was very, very close to what happened" in the movie. Heder recalls, "I was so disturbed by the behavior of this mom, I really wanted to take the kid when I left. And I didnt. But I thought about who would. It sort of started as an idea from the character I had in my head...Suddenly I felt like I had the plot of this movie from her. It kind of spun out from there. I wanted to explore this idea of motherhood and parenthood and who was meant to be a mother and who wasnt and it came from that."" Read more here.
