Synopsis

Cabiria, a young woman, is abducted by pirates and sold into slavery in Carthage. When she is about to be offered as a sacrifice to Moloch, she is rescued by Fulvius Axilla, a Roman spy of good character, and his powerful slave, Maciste. After the rescue, the three are separated: Cabiria is placed under the care of a woman of noble birth, Maciste receives punishment for his heroic actions, and Fulvius is dispatched to fight for Rome. Their future reunions remain uncertain.

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.
