Synopsis

Shot on 16mm film in Mozambique, *Ico Costa*’s work examines the nuances of human behavior as it follows young men contemplating what lies beyond their immediate environment. Through fragments of conversation recorded in the Maputo market, a recording studio, and among coconut trees, the film captures the rhythms of daily life and the resulting discussions about desire, money, and hope. The interplay between performance and documentary gives rise to poetry drawn from the transient moments of everyday existence.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 15

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.
