Synopsis

René Magritte, a surrealist painter, explores the nature of objective reality and highlights the arbitrary connection between an object, its visual representation, and its name. His work evokes a sense of mystery through images of familiar objects that are either assembled or altered in ways that defy conventional understanding, challenging both naive and sophisticated perceptions.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 7

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.
