Synopsis

This biographical film, created to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Nikolai Gogol, was directed in the distinctive style of author Leonid Parfyonov. The documentary presents Gogol, the writer of "Dead Souls," "The Inspector General," and "Taras Bulba," not as the founder of realism in Russian literature, but as a modern and relevant avant-garde figure who produced works previously unseen, rich with magic and phantasmagoria.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 11

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.
