Director Christina Morales Hemenway had the following to say about the film: [3]

Naked Angel is a mystic drama about an angel who is trying to earn her wings but falls in love with a mortal man and then finds she can no longer hear the voice of God. One thing that is especially exciting about producing this film is that it will be a community filmmaking experience. We plan to hire as many local people as possible, get local businesses involved, and showcase Ann Arbor locations in the film.
