Synopsis

A military base south of Iran has been attacked by the Iraqi air force. Among the wounded is a volunteer called Abdolali Safari. When he's injured, the doctors realize the shrapnel in his leg is larger than normal, and it soon turns out to be a cluster bomb. The matter of defusing the bomb inside Abdolali divides the surgeons of the hospital.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 16

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.
