Synopsis

While some people need to be surrounded by friends to be happy, Carmen (Mercedes Sampietro) is perfectly content by herself, pursuing her vocation as an art restorer. But her bubble of isolation is punctured when she becomes the survivor of a violent assault. Shaken by the incident, Carmen decides she needs a break from it all. So begins a soul-searching journey that takes Carmen back to her hometown in southern Spain, where she contemplates the joys and sorrows of her past.

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.
