Synopsis

A band of criminals attempt to capture King Mong, a giant gorilla who lives in the jungle, where a tribe worships him as a god. The criminals offer Costinha, the king of the jungle, as a gift to please the god. A mess ensues and all of the inhabitants of the jungle end up in a Brazilian circus. A parody of the 1976 King Kong remake.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 17

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.
