Synopsis

When James reveals to his mother that he is gay, it challenges her sense of being a liberal and open-minded parent. Audrey, a businesswoman from San Diego, is shaken by the news. The situation becomes more complicated when James asks her to accompany him to Arkansas to inform his lover's estranged mother, Luanne, that her son has AIDS. As Audrey and Luanne gradually overcome their mutual prejudice, they begin to open up to each other, sharing their thoughts, hopes, and fears for their sons.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 21

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.
