Synopsis

Myra, daughter of the circus king, has been kidnapped in South America. Or so her father believes. In reality, Miss Shumway has escaped into the Indian jungle in the company of a conjurer. Millan, a mischievous and adventurous journalist, tracks down the young woman in the Indian sector of Tamazunchale. They get to know each other and Myra tells the young man what drove her to flee her father. But she's run out of money and expects her adventure to come to an end soon. Then she meets a man named Doc, who suggests she contact an old Indian sorcerer.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 25

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.
