Synopsis

Set during the Russian Empire’s occupation of the Caucasus, the film follows the heroic struggle of the Caucasian Turks against Tsarist forces. The story centers on Sheikh Shamil, who leads the resistance, and the masked avenger known as the “Caucasian Eagle,” as they confront the brutalities of Commander Boris and navigate complex alliances and betrayals.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 13

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.
