Synopsis

When a Black Panther raid on the house of a drug dealer goes wrong, an innocent young man is killed, and the leader of the raid team, a Panther named Charles Henderson (Obba Babatunde), is sentenced to life in prison. Bestselling author Paul Freeman (Michael Irons), who teaches a creative-writing class in Henderson's prison, initially seeks inspiration for his next book, but as Henderson becomes one of his students, Freeman begins to investigate his case and grows convinced that, after 20 years, Henderson deserves to be released. However, convincing the sister of the man whose death Henderson is responsible for proves to be the next challenge.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 19

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.
