Synopsis

In a certain dilapidated fishing town, Hibari, born and raised, works as a banquet companion. Of course, the customers' main interest is the special service provided after the banquet. Hibari is skilled at entertaining customers and has many regular patrons. Hibari maintains a cheerful demeanor, but her older brother, Akira, a fisherman, has been missing ever since he went out to sea in a storm. Hibari continues to wait alone, believing that her brother will return. And there is Torio, the son of the innkeeper and a chef, who watches Hibari with longing eyes.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 13

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.
