Synopsis

A barmaid serves a customer with a smile and cherries from a newly delivered box. When she refuses to give a cherry to a poorly dressed tradesman who regularly runs a tab at the bar, he pays off his debt in anger, using all the money he has earned for the week. He then enters his sparsely furnished home, now penniless and without supplies, where his wife and two children, poorly clothed and undernourished, wait anxiously. Is there any hope for him and his family? If he comes to understand how far he has fallen, what support is available to help him rise again? Will the family ever experience the taste of cherries?

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 1

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.
