Synopsis

The film was shot under extreme conditions and draws inspiration from Mayan creation theory. It examines the illusion of reality and explores whether a camera can capture something that does not exist, focusing on both the mirages found in nature and the concept of mirage itself.

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.
