Synopsis

Alice dances aboard her ship with a lively and eccentric crew that resembles a zoo. In the galley, the chef, a cat, is cooking while his assistant, a mouse, peels potatoes. When the cat complains that they need eggs, the mouse is sent to the crow's nest to retrieve them. The birds there are uncooperative, but the mouse eventually manages to grab one egg and force three more out of it. Upon returning, the mouse discovers the chef now needs milk, so he sets off to find the ship's goat, encountering further comedic obstacles along the way.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 5

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.
