Synopsis

In 1877 in Montelusa, Sicily, Italy, Giovanni Bovara is appointed chief inspector of the mills and tasked with collecting a harsh tax. Born in Sicily but raised in Liguria, Bovara thinks and speaks like a man of northern Italy and fails to grasp the unspoken rules that govern Sicilian society. His rigid enforcement of the tax quickly earns him many enemies.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 18

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.
