Synopsis

In this comedy, a likeable 6th grader named Liam writes to Santa Claus, asking him to prove he's real. However, due to Liam's dyslexia, he mistakenly sends the letter to Satan instead. Satan, thrilled to receive his first fanboy letter, shows up at Liam's house and requests a small portion of Liam's soul.

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.
