Synopsis

Bomba Queen is loosely based on the story of Josephine "Yvonne" Samson one of the biggest bold stars of the 70s. Before she was Yvonne she was Rose, a provincial girl sold to one of the discreet brothels in Manila. Soon enough Rose was able to escape and make a name for herself as she became Yvonne, the bomba queen. Bomba Queen follows Rose through the successes and pitfalls of her newfound stardom and eventual descent back to poverty.

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.
