Synopsis

Reimagining of the Don Quixote saga. A professor is working on a study about knights in early Swiss history on behalf of the Swiss National Science Foundation and becomes a knight himself in order to better imagine their world. Accompanied by the keeper of a scrap metal yard, he takes to the field against modern highwaymen, giants, and lindworms—against highways, environmental pollution, nuclear power plants, reservoirs, and the tanks of the Swiss army.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 18

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.
