The film was adapted from Abdylazis Islami's novel "Të Treturit nga Projona," which served as the basis for the story in "The Vanished" ("I Treturi").
The movie title in Albanian is "I Treturi," which corresponds to "The Vanished" in English.
"The Vanished" ("I Treturi") is the feature film debut of director Arben Thachi.
