Synopsis

Onno, a 30-year-old man, applies for a coveted position as a curator at Amsterdam's Rijksmuseum. He progresses to the final round of interviews alongside Alex, an arrogant and self-assured young professional. Believing Alex has a strong advantage in securing the job, Onno becomes increasingly resentful. A few days before the final interview, he kidnaps Alex and confines him in a remote cottage near a railway line, which has recently been inherited by his girlfriend. Onno plans to release Alex only after he has been offered the job. Three years later, Onno is now a successful curator at the Rijksmuseum, living with his partner and their young son. When he needs to hire an assistant, he is surprised to find Alex among the applicants, now with one eye blind.

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.
