Synopsis

Manuel Chaves Nogales (1897–1944) was a Spanish journalist known for covering major events in turbulent times. He reported from Spain during the 1936 civil war, as well as from Bolshevik Russia, Fascist Italy, Nazi Germany, occupied Paris, and wartime London during World War II. His work involved traveling to the frontlines to observe and report, with the aim of countering tyranny in an era where taking a political stance was often necessary to avoid isolation. Despite the pressures of the time, Chaves Nogales maintained a consistent commitment to integrity throughout his career.

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.
