Synopsis

Harun Farocki was commissioned by the Lille Museum of Modern Art to create a video "about his work." The result was a two-screen installation presented during the 1995 exhibition *The World of Photography*. From this installation emerged the work *Schnittstelle*, which reflects on Farocki's documentary practice and explores the implications of working with pre-existing images rather than creating new ones. The title plays on the double meaning of "Schnitt," referring both to the editing table where Farocki worked and to the "human-machine interface," where a person interacts with a computer using a keyboard and a mouse.

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.
