Synopsis

An intelligent android named Michael, created by a research team, is taken outside for a trial and successfully passes as human. Upon learning of the experiment, the government demands its own set of tests in Washington. When the project leader discovers that the military intends to use the android as a soldier, he refuses to comply and goes into hiding with Michael to evade their pursuit.

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.
