Synopsis

In 1913, Paris is the setting for a convergence of artistic innovation and personal ambition. Coco Chanel is captivated by the wealthy and charismatic Boy Capel, yet her passion for her work remains strong. Around the same time, Igor Stravinsky is preparing *The Rite of Spring* for its debut. The bold and jarring dissonances in Stravinsky's composition mirror Coco's own radical vision for fashion. She seeks to make women's clothing more accessible and practical, while Igor aims to transform musical conventions. Coco attends the controversial premiere of *The Rite of Spring*, wearing a stylish white dress. The performance, both musically and visually, is met with criticism for being too modern and too foreign. Coco is deeply affected by the experience, but Igor struggles to cope with the negative reception.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 21

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.
