Chimpanzee
“For Oscar, every day is an adventure”
Synopsis
A nature documentary focusing on a family of chimpanzees living in the Ivory Coast and Ugandan rainforests. Through Oscar, a young chimpanzee, the film explores life in the African tropical forest, following his early experiences with humor, emotion, and hardship. After a tragic event, Oscar becomes separated from his mother and must confront the challenges of the jungle alone until he is taken in by an older chimpanzee who offers him protection.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 7
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.
