Synopsis

Alice and Julius are riding on a turtle when they spot a pie left to cool on a third-storey window sill. Using the turtle's long neck, they manage to snatch the pie. A police officer soon gives chase, and the pair attempt to escape by paddling across a pond and up a river. However, the officer remains persistent and tricks them into entering his paddy wagon, leading to their arrest. In prison, their antics continue, culminating in a bold jailbreak.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 3

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.
