Synopsis

In 1970, three children are born during a total solar eclipse. The alignment of the sun and moon blocks Saturn, a celestial body associated with emotions, leading to the children developing heartless and violent tendencies a decade later. Despite their murderous behavior, they remain undetected due to their youthful and innocent appearances. A boy and his teenage sister find themselves in danger when they uncover the bloody reality behind the events.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 18

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.
