Synopsis

Mazepa, the Ukrainian governor, is in love with his goddaughter, Maria. He soon wins her affection, but her aging father treats him with hostility. Maria flees, and the enraged father refuses to yield. The situation creates the core of a historical drama. Maria faces the arbitrary forces of authority, caught in a conflict between her love for Mazepa and her loyalty to her family. The tragic conclusion reflects the inescapability of her fate.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 8

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.
