Synopsis

The epilogue of the film *The Laughing Man* (1966), which shifts between a detached tone and one of anger, reveals the involvement of West German mercenary Siegfried Müller in the conflict against the Congolese government led by Lumumba. In this section, new witnesses testify against Major Müller, including a former school friend and a French paratrooper colonel. GDR lawyer Kaul provides an update on the criminal proceedings against Müller, while the final scenes depict the war criminal feeding ducks in South Africa.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 6

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.
