Synopsis

Mumin, a curious and intelligent young boy, embarks on a long journey from his home in Ghana's rural northern region to Accra.

As he makes his way through the country, Mumin experiences Ghana through a child's eyes, offering a perspective that broadens the understanding of the nation's present and future.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 10

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.
