Synopsis

A stylized, wordless portrayal of two men in Sydney explores contrasting lives: one is a gay man recovering from a beating, the other a member of a gay-bashing gang. The gay man engages in a form of dance that blends elements of tai chi, ballet, and modern jazz. The man who rescued him becomes his teacher, lover, and dance partner. The film also depicts the attacker, whose rigid adherence to machismo leads him to mistreat his own girlfriend. By the end, the male couple is joined by a third dancer, a woman, symbolizing a potential for artistic and social harmony.

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.
