Chasing the Dragon

Drama

Synopsis

Life is a drug-induced haze for Claire Oberon, who lives in her remote mansion addicted to heroin, surrounding herself with her drug-addicted friends and letting her life slowly fade away. Attempting one last chance, Claire's mother, Judith Oberon, contacts Cary Gable, an ex-boyfriend of Claire's, to help clean her up. At a standstill in his own life, Cary sees this as an opportunity to move on, and through his efforts to get Claire back on track, the lives of those involved are changed forever.

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.
