Synopsis

A story about an orphan boy who was abandoned by his family and raised by his kind adoptive mother. His adoptive father, facing hardship, sold him to a traveling man who became his teacher and father figure. Under his guidance, the boy learned to play music and perform on the street, accompanied by three intelligent dogs and a monkey. Together, they traveled through the towns of France, experiencing life's twists and turns, which eventually led to the boy's ultimate search for his real family.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 17

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.
