Ex Machina
Caleb, a programmer invited to a reclusive tech genius's remote estate, must determine if an advanced AI robot named Ava is truly sentient—while growing emotionally entangled with her as she manipulates him to escape her confines.
“There is nothing more human than the will to survive.”
Synopsis
Caleb, a coder at the world's largest internet company, wins a competition to spend a week at a private mountain retreat owned by Nathan, the reclusive CEO of the company. Upon arriving at the remote location, Caleb discovers that he is to participate in an unusual and intriguing experiment, in which he must interact with the world's first true artificial intelligence, embodied in the form of a beautiful robot girl.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 21
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.
