Synopsis

In 1928, Rudolf Truffino was born as the third son of a banker in The Hague of Italian origin. At a young age he decides to leave his family and motherland for good to venture into the Venezuelan jungle. Rudy puts places on the map where no man had ever been before and guides scientific expeditions. Rudy becomes a well-known person under the name 'Jungle Rudy' and starts a family in the middle of the jungle. He receives celebrity guests at his camp, 'Ucaima'. More than ten years after 'Jungle Rudy' died, his daughters still wonder what to do. Should they continue the dream of their legendary father or should they return to civilization?

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 8

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.
