Synopsis

After his daughter was killed in Panama in 1994, former CIA agent Calvin Dexter became a private "specialist" in cases that could not be resolved through the regular legal system. Two years later, he is hired by Stephen Edmonds, an influential and wealthy businessman, to find Richard "Ricky" Edmunds. Ricky had been working for a Canadian charity aiding war victims in Bosnia and then went missing. Dexter discovers that Ricky was beaten and drowned for no other reason than helping street boys from the opposing side, a crime committed by Zoran Zilic and his Serbian paramilitary group. Dexter offers to "finish the job," as such war criminals typically avoid trial. However, Deputy CIA Director Paul Devereaux is more concerned with a nuclear arms project that requires Zilic's cooperation. As a result, CIA troubleshooter Frank McBride is assigned to protect Zilic and manage Dexter.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 20

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.
