Synopsis

This historical drama follows the story of Armenian-born Missak Manouchian, a woodworker and political activist who led a group of immigrant laborers within the Parisian Resistance, carrying out 30 operations against the Nazis in 1943. The Nazis labeled the group an Army of Crime, a piece of anti-immigrant propaganda that ultimately backfired, as the members became symbols of resistance and were honored as martyrs.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 18

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.
