Synopsis

The show was recorded at the Cirque d'Hiver in 1997. This performance marked both the consecration and the farewell of Elie Kakou to his public. Considered the artist's most accomplished work, the show blends grand spectacle and humor through an extraordinary sound and visual delirium: accompanied by dancers, trapeze artists, stilt walkers, and whimsical characters, all choreographed by Rhéda; it is one of the most beautiful tributes to the world of the circus.

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.
