Synopsis

Krystyna, a Czech refugee, makes the journey to New York in search of Anna, her actress idol and fellow expatriate. Upon arriving in the city, Anna discovers that fame does not easily transfer across borders, and she faces a series of demeaning auditions in an effort to find work in her new home. When Krystyna and Anna finally reunite, they offer each other a crucial source of support.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 19

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.
