Synopsis

Due to his short fuse, Kyota is never able to hold a job for very long. Instead, he wastes his days with his dead-beat friends, Takuji and Ringo. Meanwhile his father is a cross-dresser, and his little sister Akemi is a dangerous sleepwalker who is trying to divorce her dangerous yakuza husband. When their mother returns after abandoning them 10 years earlier, Kyota lashes out. But as their dysfunctional life together begins, something happens that changes this family's destiny forever.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 10

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.
