Synopsis

Ruben and Carlos become cellmates in a minimum‑security prison. While Ruben learns the routines of daily life and his place within the prison’s hierarchical system, Carlos serves as a mentor and later becomes his lover. The two men develop feelings for each other that they find difficult to express. As time passes and one is released before the other, questions arise about whether their relationship was genuine or driven solely by a need for human connection.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 19

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.
