Another Woman

A emotionally guarded philosophy professor rents a quiet apartment to finish her book, but an acoustic leak lets her hear a stranger’s desperate therapy session, forcing her to confront the hidden costs of her own detachment before it destroys the relationships she’s kept at arm’s length.

Synopsis

Marion is a woman who has learned to shield herself from her emotions. She rents an apartment to work undisturbed on her new book, but due to an acoustic anomaly, she can hear everything said in the next apartment, where a psychiatrist holds his office. When she hears a young woman say that she finds it harder and harder to bear her life, Marion begins to reflect on her own life. After a series of events, she comes to understand how her unemotional attitude toward the people around her has affected both them and herself.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 16

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.

Box Office

1988 · Box office

📉 Underperformed — grossed 0.2× its budget

Why 2.5×?

Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
