Synopsis

Ben Campbell, a 22-year-old gas station attendant in a small desert town, seeks to earn some extra money. He is surprised when Madec, a wealthy lawyer, hires him as a guide for a hunting trip in the desert. When Madec accidentally shoots a prospector, he becomes concerned about the impact on his reputation and decides to eliminate the only witness, Ben, who is forced to flee. In addition to being pursued by Madec, Ben must also face the harsh conditions of the desert. However, if he manages to return to town alive, the question remains whether anyone will believe his story.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 17

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.
