Synopsis

Schleißheim Palace, located near Munich in Bavaria, Germany, was the filming location for Alain Resnais's 1960 film *Last Year at Marienbad*. The palace is situated close to the Dachau concentration camp, where thousands of people were killed between 1933 and 1945. The juxtaposition of these two sites has inspired reflections on the themes of time, memory, and history, as well as the contrast between beauty and horror, life and death.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 3

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.
