Synopsis

A wealthy and ruthless landowner, Kitsos Mavromitsos, oppresses an entire region and uses his money to buy people and consciences. He feels omnipotent, but a poor young man, Lambros, who is in love with the beautiful Krystallo, stands up for himself and demands what is rightfully his. Kitsos asks for Krystallo's hand from her father, Barba-Chronis, who agrees to make him his son-in-law, but ignores the fact that his daughter loves Lambros. Kitsos then kills Barba-Chronis and pins the murder on Lambros. While Lambros rots in prison, Kitsos seizes the opportunity to marry Krystallo. However, Lambros escapes from prison and returns to the village, revealing the truth. Kitsos gets the punishment he deserves, as he is accidentally killed by his own brother.

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.
