Synopsis

Director Steve McQueen films Trip-Hop artist Tricky recording "Girls." In the tight confines of a recording booth, the musician Adrian Thomas, also known as Tricky, repeatedly performs the song "girls" from his album *Blowback* (2001). The intimate and highly charged atmosphere of the studio is complemented by lyrics that explore the relationships between girls, boys, and absent fathers.

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.
