Synopsis

In Melbourne, a group of Nazi skinheads vent their anger on the local Vietnamese community, whom they perceive as a threat to racial purity. The Vietnamese, growing increasingly frustrated with the violence and hostility, ultimately decide to stand up to the skinheads, leading to a full-scale confrontation that results in the skinheads being driven away. A woman who experiences epileptic seizures becomes involved with the skinhead group.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

A crew of 41+ credited

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.

⚖️ Fell short of break-even — grossed 2.1× its budget

Why 2.5×?

Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
