Synopsis

Klaus Fried was a teenager when his father Erich Fried, the writer, died. He had to share him with the entire world public. The son embarks on a search, meets family members, friends and companions and, together with Julia Albrecht, tries to piece together a picture of his father from the memories of these people. When he meets Astrid Proll, co-founder of the RAF, the hard struggle for answers makes it clear how similar father and son are.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 19

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.
