Synopsis

In the dive bar "Rote Katze," unemployed actor André is mistaken for a gang leader, whose charm attracts the interest of Gloria, the daughter of US jeweler Jefferson, who is said to have just acquired the famous "Halifax" diamond. The crook Pitou is also interested in the diamond and tries to ingratiate himself with the Jeffersons. When Pitou sees Gloria with the supposed gang leader André, he believes that André might also be after the "Halifax" and wants to confront him on the spot.

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.
