Financial support for the documentary came from the German Federal Film Board [de], DFFF, Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg, as well as from MFG Baden-Württemberg and the MEDIA Programme of the European Union.

Neukölln Unlimited can best be described as a musical film that deals with the topic of integration of immigrant youth living in neglected urban areas.

Other songs heard in the film were performed by Hassan and Lial's band NoIBN, and were produced by the independent music label Foreign Flavour.

To convey the protagonists' experience made during a past deportation, and to take the audience along on this emotional journey, the directors decided it was important not to show the historical context by using the classical documentary style of so-called "talking heads" giving interviews.

Because graffiti is a major artistic method of expression in the hip-hop and breaker scene, the directors decided to portray past events in the style of comic strips.

Since "Neukölln Unlimited" is a low-budget production, complicated animation scenes were avoided and drama was created with the help of music, sound design, and, especially, Hassan's anecdotes.
