Synopsis

Fifteen-year-old Ellis Whitman, raised by a self-absorbed New Age mother and an estranged father, has been guided by an unconventional guardian: a goat-trekking, marijuana-growing sage known as "Goat Man." When Ellis chooses to leave the alternative lifestyle of his desert homestead for a more traditional environment at a stuffy East Coast prep school, significant changes begin to unfold in his life.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 22

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.
