Synopsis

Every five years, in a different location around the world, a select group of wealthy individuals is invited to participate in a deadly game. What distinguishes this event from other games is the high stakes: human lives. Gortari, a powerful business mogul and leader of the organization, chooses participants with combat skills and forces them into the game. For the spectators placing bets, it is a form of entertainment; for the players, it is a brutal fight to the death where roles are constantly shifting between predator and prey. Aurelio, one of the strongest players, survived the previous game five years earlier. Now, he must decide whether to be captured once more by the game or to rise up and dismantle the organization from within as he faces off against the other 14 players and the ticking clock.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 16

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.
