Synopsis

A group of German terrorists kidnaps the crew of an airplane as they exit the airport, demanding the release of two of their comrades facing extradition to the United States. Frustrated by the lack of progress through diplomatic channels, the father of one of the flight attendants decides to take matters into his own hands and travels to Germany. There, he enlists the help of a former SAS counter-terrorism specialist, and the two set out to track down and confront the terrorists.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 23

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.
