Synopsis

In a city of the East, the throne of the young king Amad is usurped by the evil Vizir Jafar. The king is imprisoned, and in prison he meets the famous thieves of the kingdom: Abdul, Abel, Abol and Abil. With the help of these thieves, the king flees and, during the escape, knows the princess Alina, by which he falls passionately in love. The Vizir possesses magical powers, faced by the heroes with the help of the genie of a lamp found by Abdul. With the help of the genius, the four friends are transported to the twentieth century, where they cause much confusion and end up being arrested.

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.
