Synopsis

Nikki Douka, a young woman from Samothraki, sails to the United States to fulfill a marriage contract and restore her family’s honor. During the voyage she works as a seamstress, sewing and altering wedding dresses for third‑class passengers. While aboard she encounters an American photographer returning from the Middle East after documenting the 1922 war in Smyrna; his attraction to her honesty, pride and beauty leads him to fall in love with her. The journey is marked by various tribulations, including the dramas of several other young women who become victims of predatory characters, as Nikki contends with her feelings for the photographer.

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.
