Synopsis

One Saturday night at a Rio carnival. Filmed in the famous "Elite," using direct sound, it faithfully documents all the stages of the party: the preparation of the hall, the bar, the regulars, the orchestra, the music, the dance, and the characteristic types, all forming a large panel of popular power and poetry.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 4

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.
