Synopsis

A boy sits at a table, writing a letter to Boris Prutkov. The cartoon traces the letter's journey from Rostov to Leningrad, where Prutkov has just left for Berlin; when the letter arrives in Berlin, Prutkov has already departed for London; as it reaches London, Prutkov is already on a steamboat to Brazil; and when the letter is finally delivered by the postman Don Basilio, Prutkov is on his way back to Leningrad. In the end, the letter—having followed Prutkov around the world—finally reaches him in the Soviet capital. The film celebrates the global postal service and the reliability of postmen, while also depicting a journey around the world that ultimately returns to Leningrad.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 5

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.
