Synopsis

Henriette lives alone in a luxurious old apartment in Wiesbaden, which she inherited from her parents. Her daily life is as quiet and orderly as the large rooms surrounding her. She works as a teacher at a nearby ballet school and regularly writes letters to a composer she admires but has never met. She spends her evenings with friends who are actually her parents' friends. A chance encounter disrupts Henriette's quiet existence: she witnesses Felix, who is deaf and mute, stealing money from a café that was meant for the waiter. When she speaks to him on the train shortly afterward, it marks the beginning of an unusual relationship full of contrasts and unspoken passion.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 17

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.
