El Rudo
Synopsis
A man lives a dangerous double life, working at a mechanic shop by day while secretly operating in the world of drug trafficking. To his family, he appears to be an honest and hardworking provider, unaware of the risks that surround them. As competition in the criminal underworld intensifies, his hidden life begins to threaten everything he has built. Rival dealers close in, turning his home and loved ones into targets. Caught between protecting his family and maintaining his illegal business, he must confront the consequences of his choices before it is too late.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 14
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.
