Synopsis

Heidi is an orphan who is initially raised by her aunt, Dete, in Maienfeld, Switzerland. To secure a job in Frankfurt, Dete sends 5-year-old Heidi to live with her grandfather, a man who has long been at odds with the villagers and lives in isolation on the alm. Initially resistant to Heidi's presence, the grandfather gradually warms to her, and Heidi enjoys a happy time with him and her closest companion, the young goat-herd Peter.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 21

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.
