Synopsis

*SHANK* presents a stark vision of future urban life in which guns have been replaced by knives, wielded aggressively by disaffected youth. In this turbulent setting, the Paper Chazers gang stands out as a rare group with a moral compass, earning money by trading scavenged food. When a Chazers member named Junior witnesses the murder of his brother, he faces a difficult choice: seek revenge or remain loyal to the gang's ethical principles.

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.
