Synopsis

Donald Duck is unaware that he suffers from sleepwalking, a condition that leads him to make nightly visits to Daisy's house, as if it were the hour of a romantic appointment. Daisy, understanding that one should not wake or challenge a sleepwalker, pretends to go along with the charade. However, she finds it increasingly difficult to keep up with Donald and prevent him from putting himself in danger by wandering into perilous locations, such as a lion's cage at the zoo, and even impossible ones, like walking up a wall and upside down. When Daisy finally manages to get Donald into bed, he wakes up and, seeing her leave quietly, mistakenly believes that she is the one sleepwalking.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 6

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.
