Synopsis

Fabian is a disaster researcher. He wants to investigate the demise of the Golden Loom, a once-flourishing culture centered around the weaving of the sacred carpet. In its late phase, a carpet industry dominated the country until it was liberated from the all-consuming Carpet Authority and its huge factory by a catastrophe. Fabian travels to the sites of the past culture. There he meets descendants and survivors of the catastrophe. With their help, he writes his research report. An unspecified incident in his homeland prevents him from returning. By marrying a young weaver, he eventually becomes related to all the people he met during his research and becomes an employee of the local carpet museum.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 15

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.
