Synopsis

When half‑breed Indian Yaqui Joe robs a bank in Arizona, he is pursued by lawman Lyedecker. After fleeing to Mexico, Joe is imprisoned by General Verdugo, who is conducting a war against the Yaqui Indians. Lyedecker tries to intervene and is also thrown into prison. The two men escape together and take refuge in the hills, where Lyedecker meets the Yaqui freedom fighter Sarita and begins to question his allegiances.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 17

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
