Synopsis

One morning, a Japanese monk arrives in a village: he does not speak, has a head injury, and appears to be on the run. Chief Inspector Louise Bonì quickly realizes the young man is in serious danger. However, her supervisor, Bermann, does not believe her—since a previous deadly incident left Bonì psychologically affected and struggling with alcoholism. Despite this, she continues the investigation on her own. The trail leads to a mysterious Zen monastery and a private children's aid organization that facilitates the adoption of Asian children. Soon, Louise begins to suspect something terrible.

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.
