Synopsis

Spaniard Carlos travels to Havana to help his brother complete their father's documentary on Afro-Cuban religion. But he soon finds himself ensconced in the city's dark underbelly as he encounters drugs, gambling and prostitution. Director Jorge Nebra defied Cuban authorities by making this gritty drama in spite of the government's censorship of the script and denial of permission to film in Havana.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 13

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.

Craft leads on file
