Synopsis

This film tells the story of a homosexual man who learns he has AIDS and explores how others respond to his condition. His former lovers reunite when he becomes seriously ill. The narrative balances humor with emotional depth, and author William Hoffman offers an unflinching portrayal of gay life as well as the emotional impact of the disease.

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.
