Synopsis

In a simple apartment in an unnamed city, two sisters are living together. The younger sister, Ping, is struggling with a severe eating disorder. She came to stay with her older sister, Ming, with the hope to save her out of the mental illness that is drowning her life. It becomes clear that Ming, who has been playing the role of rescuer with a strong and resolved appearance, is actually struggling with her own emotional turmoil. Out of despair, Ping goes to join a support group, which turns out to be a pro-anorexia cult. Ping is pushed to the edge of death.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 4

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.
