Synopsis

The film is based on the true story of Olga Benário, a German‑born woman who was married to Brazilian communist leader Luís Carlos Prestes. During Getúlio Vargas’s dictatorship (1930–1945) she was arrested and extradited to Nazi Germany, where she was killed in a concentration camp; after World War II began, Vargas chose to align Brazil with the Allies.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 19

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.
