Synopsis

At seventeen, many girls are focused on appearance, fashion, and romantic interests, but Luka is different—she's a skilled boxer who pays little attention to her looks or attracting boys. After breaking a schoolmate's nose, her parents send her to a boarding school to develop more refined behavior. There, she is mistaken for Frankie, a missing male student, and assumes his identity. Using her boxing abilities, she quickly earns the approval of her three roommates—Chico, Toby, and Jo—and forms a close bond with Chico. However, her blunt honesty and loyalty to her new friends soon lead to conflicts with the headmistress and her nephew, the school's bully.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 16

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.
