Synopsis

Young Everardo Muñoz is the leader of the Mexican Butchers and Related Workers Union. Feeling like he's the chosen one, he tries to persuade his friend, Congressman Valles Pascual, to help him launch his political career. But as usual, the party he belongs to has other plans for him, just like in Buenos Muchachos. What the butcher doesn't know, although he finds out in time, is that this new plot includes wiping him off the map and then making carnitas with his corpse.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 12

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.
