Synopsis

Hermann is an officer in the engineers' corps of the Imperial Russian Army. He frequently observes his fellow officers gambling but never participates himself. One evening, Tomsky recounts a story about his grandmother, an elderly countess. Many years earlier, in France, she had lost a fortune at cards, only to later recover it by using the secret of the three winning cards, a method she learned from the infamous Count of St. Germain. This tale sparks Hermann's intense desire to uncover the secret for himself.

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.
