Synopsis

Set in the USSR in November 1941, this film is based on the account of Vasiliy Koroteev and tells the story of Panfilov's Twenty-Eight, a group of twenty-eight Red Army soldiers led by General Ivan Panfilov. They halted the advance of a column of fifty-four Nazi tanks from the 11th Panzer Division for several days. Despite being lightly armed, the soldiers fought tirelessly and defiantly, displaying uncommon bravery and unwavering dedication in their efforts to protect Moscow and their Motherland.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 18

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.
