Synopsis

According to an ancient legend of the Sicilian tradition, the Natives are a lineage of fascinating women endowed with extraordinary powers, whose spirits manage to separate from their bodies to torment and ruin the lives of the unfortunate victims of the moment. The one who feels persecuted by a Native is Michela, a young doctor who, after returning to her small hometown on the slopes of Etna, witnesses a progressive derailment of her professional and emotional life. Paranoid and suspicious of everyone, Michela needs to identify who her enemy is among the many women around her and face her head on before it's too late.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 16

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.

Box Office

2011 · Box office

📉 Underperformed — grossed 0.8× its budget

Why 2.5×?

Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
