Synopsis

In 1999, a team of United Nations scientists traveled to a remote island named Samsara in an effort to harness a new energy source. During their experiment, they inadvertently opened a portal to another universe, releasing dormant biomechanical entities. Three years later, in 2002, Takuya Goroza returns to the island of Samsara after receiving a mysterious message from his college friend Haruka Alford. Unbeknownst to him, Haruka is not who he seems to be.

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.
