Synopsis

Marcel and Felix embark on a twelve-day hiking journey on foot with a donkey from Munich to Germany's highest mountain, the Zugspitze. Intended as an educational experience for Felix, a pubescent son, the trip turns into a challenging and humorous endurance test for both father and son. Felix grapples with his own emotions and his strained relationship with his largely absent father, while Marcel confronts a new chapter in his life. As the donkey, Maria, steadily sets the pace, the two stubborn individuals are forced to rely on themselves. Alongside the physical challenges of the mountain trek, they encounter a variety of unusual people who mirror their own desires and fears, gradually drawing them closer together.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 15

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.
