Frailty
An FBI agent must decide if a mysterious drifter’s chilling confession about his fanatical father's murderous "divine" crusade is truth or delusion, before the unseen evil it describes claims another victim.
“No soul is safe.”
Synopsis
A mysterious man arrives at the offices of an FBI agent and recounts his childhood, describing how his religious fanatic father received visions instructing him to kill people who were actually "demons."

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 39
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.
