Synopsis

Grandma Vera takes a bus from a small Polish town to Pinneberg to celebrate her birthday with her granddaughter Linda, Linda's husband Lothar, and their two children, Jan and Christina. The family, along with Lothar's formal and strict parents, enjoys a cheerful evening together. However, the following morning, Grandma is found dead. Although she had wished to be buried next to her husband, Pyotr, in her hometown of Kovalov, the family cannot afford the cost of a funeral there. As a result, they decide the only option is to transport her body themselves.

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.
