Synopsis

In a near-future society, the aging gene has been deactivated, eliminating natural mortality. To manage overpopulation, time has become the primary currency, used to purchase both necessities and luxuries. The wealthy, with abundant time, can live indefinitely, while the less fortunate must constantly barter for their survival. A young man from a disadvantaged background suddenly inherits a large amount of time, making him a target of the corrupt police force, known as the "time keepers," who pursue him to seize his newfound resource.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

A crew of 85+ credited

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.

Box Office

2011 · Box office

💰 Box-office hit — grossed 4.3× its budget

Why 2.5×?

Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
