Synopsis

In Philip's science class, every student has a compelling idea for their report—except for Philip himself. One evening, he hears a song playing on a classmate's boom box, which sparks an idea: dinosaurs. The following day at the museum, Philip becomes captivated by the search for the truth about these remarkable creatures and their impressive 160-million-year presence on Earth, finding it to be the most intriguing mystery he has ever encountered. What follows is an engaging mix of established theories and intriguing speculation.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 10

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.
