Southland Tales
An amnesiac action star fights to reclaim his lost identity as a chaotic July 4th erupts in Los Angeles, where a reality‑TV adult film star and a police officer drag him into a sprawling conspiracy that could topple the city’s fragile order.
“This is the way the world ends.”
Synopsis
Set in a futuristic Los Angeles on July 4, 2008, on the edge of social, economic, and environmental collapse, *Boxer Santaros* follows an action star suffering from amnesia. His journey becomes entangled with Krysta Now, an adult film performer working on a reality television project, and Ronald Taverner, a Hermosa Beach police officer who possesses knowledge of a large-scale conspiracy.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 23
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.
