Synopsis

The Bleacher Bums are a vocal and devoted group of fans who gather in the stadium's affordable seating to support their team. Many have been attending games for years, steadfastly cheering for a squad that rarely achieves success. Though familiar with one another, their camaraderie is not always assured. As the game progresses, the Bums engage in heated debates, place bets, and express their support and frustration through cheers and boos, ultimately realizing they have more in common than they initially believed.

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.
