Synopsis

In this Oscar-nominated animated short film, director Peter Foldès portrays a man's descent into greed and gluttony. The film uses rapidly dissolving and constantly evolving images to contrast abundance with want. One of the first films to employ computer animation, the satire functions as a cautionary tale about self-indulgence in a world still affected by hunger and poverty.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 4

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.
