Synopsis

Christopher Boone is a fifteen-year-old boy with an extraordinary intellect, particularly in mathematics, though he struggles to navigate the complexities of everyday social interactions. When the neighbor's dog, Wellington, is found dead, Christopher becomes convinced that he is responsible for the animal's death and begins investigating the case. To understand the events, he documents all relevant facts in a book he is writing to solve the mystery. However, his inquiry is met with resistance from his father, leading Christopher on a challenging and unsettling journey that profoundly disrupts his life.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 17

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.
