1o,police violence, catalonia, independence

Documentary

Synopsis

The documentary *People on the Stairs* examines through 21 testimonials "the most emotional part" of what occurred on October 1 at the IES Pau Claris in Barcelona. The school was protected by local residents in the morning when the Spanish police, tasked with preventing acts of violence, attempted to enter the premises to stop the independence referendum. The footage of police officers seen pushing people down the stairs became the most widely shared images in the global media and on social networks; it is estimated that 40 million people viewed the footage. *People on the Stairs* is a TV3 production, with the collaboration of Minoria Absoluta.

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.
