Synopsis

Canadian businesswoman Dinah Middleton is devastated when her teenage son, Alex, is killed by a hit-and-run driver. When the police fail to identify any suspects, she takes matters into her own hands and becomes a private detective to track down the killer. She follows the trail to New York, only to discover that the crime is not covered by the extradition treaty between Canada and the United States. Despite this legal obstacle, she becomes increasingly obsessed with bringing the criminal to justice.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 19

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.
