Synopsis

Brixton has become a neglected area populated by London's new robot workforce—machines built and designed to perform tasks humans no longer wish to carry out. The mechanical population in Brixton has grown rapidly, leading to hasty, inexpensive additions to the urban landscape. The film explores the struggles of young robots living on the margins of inner city life, enduring a monotonous existence shaped by poverty, disillusionment, and widespread unemployment. When the police enter the one space the robots consider their own, the already tense relationship between the two groups erupts into violence reminiscent of the 1981 riots.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 2

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.
