Juantxo, described as a "mommy's boy," becomes engaged and is taken to a party by his friends Konradin and Paco. During the event he loses his expensive wedding ring inside a prostitute’s body, where it is discovered by Villambrosa, a mafioso who runs a whorehouse. Villambrosa’s rival gangster Souza dispatches the femme fatale Fatima to investigate. While attempting to retrieve the ring, Juantxo and his friends become entangled in the conflict between the two gangs.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 16

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.

Box Office

⚖️ Fell short of break-even — grossed 2.4× its budget

Why 2.5×?

Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
