Synopsis

Six families from different parts of the world have something in common: the parents have been filming their children obsessively since the day they were born. The director of this documentary contacted them to ask them to continue doing so, but following his guidelines. In these private worlds, children grow up being molded and defined by adults. Parents proudly show off the “good work” they have done with their children, while futilely attempting to capture time.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 9

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.
