Trivia
- The original title of The Adolf Factor was supposed to be Beyond Hitler
- The release date of The Adolf Factor, April 30th, corresponds to the date of death of Adolf Hitler.
- The Adolf Factor is set in the same universe of Pendrive, the previous short film by the same director: while in The Adolf Factor Dr. Rigamonti is the head of an important company, in Pendrive you can see him in his dirty business. Plus, you can hear B from Pendrive on the phone in the opening scene of The Adolf Factor.
- The first draft of the script had all the scenes in chronological sequence, with the first scene (then deleted) featuring Eva talking to a friend of her on the phone about how the family needed Stefano’s promotion.
- The fact that Stefano’s character has the same actor’s name was a coincidence.
- The wife was named Eva by the writer because that was Hitler’s wife’s name.
- Before casting Stefano Stagno, the role of Stefano should have been interpreted by the director himself.
