Synopsis

Amando is the last surviving steam train engineer in the country. At 95, he remains as active as he was in his days on the tracks. Fernanda, his granddaughter, wants to record his present as an instructor at the Rosario train driver school and railway legend, but an unexpected secret twists the story, and the search for the film becomes more personal. Fernanda decides to share a video camera with him, and so they embark on a journey that will become a rite of passage for granddaughter and grandfather, a journey of trains and cinema.

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.
