Synopsis

Gus Robinson is devoted to three things: his job, his family, and his country. However, his life begins to unravel when his factory closes, leaving him unemployed. The change affects his wife, Martha, and their son, Charlie, as they struggle to navigate a shifting world that Gus no longer understands. Amid the turmoil, one thing remains constant: his determination to fight for his son, Charlie, the one dream that no one can take from him.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 20

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.
