Synopsis

This short documentary examines the world of Italian photo comics (fumetti), centering on the models who posed as romantic heroes and heroines for popular illustrated narratives. By juxtaposing their carefully constructed on-screen personas with their real-life experiences, the film provides an observational perspective on a mass-culture phenomenon in postwar Italy.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 6

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.
