Synopsis

Spinning things: amusement park rides, a phonograph record. A man wakes, shaves, and takes a phone call. Another man, wearing a kimono, walks through the woods, stops, and opens a small decorative box on the forest floor. People enjoy themselves at an amusement park called Little Harlem. A man walks through another amusement park, named Cavalcade Worlds, as the midway rides spin. At a house, an older woman cleans; a pre-teen girl sets the table; a teenage boy showers. After he dresses, he holds a candle high above his head and walks swiftly toward a young man standing bare-chested, arms extended. A man arrives home where the girl has set the table. The youth sleeps. Christmas?

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 4

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.
