Synopsis

This documentary follows the career of celebrated Cuban musician Benny More, who, before he made it big, started out as a farmer but eventually found his calling as one of the leading members of the band Matamoros. His talent has lived on decades after his death and is in full display in the numbers he performs in collected footage, including such hits as "Como Fue," "Batanga No. 2," "Hoy Como Aye," and more.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 23

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.
