Synopsis

This documentary offers an in-depth look at Johnnie To, one of Hong Kong's most prominent filmmakers, and his cinematic world. Directed by Ferris Lin, a Beijing-based film student and devoted fan of To, the project began when Lin approached To with a proposal to document him for his graduation thesis. To accepted the offer, and Lin followed him closely over a period of more than two years, capturing insights into the director's life and work. The resulting film, *Boundless*, presents an intimate portrait of one of Hong Kong's leading directors and serves as a tribute to the legacy of Hong Kong cinema.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 13

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.
