Synopsis

An animated story follows Santa's reindeer, who have fallen ill with the North Pole flu. The nearsighted elf leader, Buzz, believes he has found ideal replacements, but the makeshift reindeer are actually nine stray dogs in an old, beat-up wagon. The question remains whether this motley group of canines will be able to steer Santa's sleigh or if Christmas will be forced to the ground.

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.
