Julien Donkey-Boy
“A fascinating journey into the mind of an adolescent schizophrenic.”
Synopsis
Julien is an undiagnosed, untreated, and generally untethered individual with schizophrenia who resides with his pregnant younger sister, his brother—an aspiring wrestler who suffers from anorexia—his sympathetic grandmother, and his father, a German man described as severely depressed and abusive.

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.

📉 Underperformed — grossed 0.1× 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).
