Synopsis

Untracked, even confused, but not unfunny, this attempt by two old people to escape. It has become too cramped in the Berlin apartment shared by three generations of a Chilean immigrant family when the paralyzed grandfather decides to return to his Chilean homeland. Under the suspicious gaze and accompanied by impotent attempts at action by the other family members, he sets off with his wife and an uncle. Their odyssey through Berlin lasts exactly one day.

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.
