Synopsis

The first story-time segment features a cheerful cockroach named Don, who scurries through his mansion home, walks beneath the floorboards, and engages in unspeakable acts in the darkness of the cupboard, before being squashed by someone's foot. The second segment follows an ordinary man named Albert Einstein, described as "the only Albert Einstein not to have discovered the Theory of Relativity," whose hands live a life of their own, staying out late at night, misbehaving, and committing adultery with feet. The third segment has little actual story and instead focuses on the inhabitants of the moving pictures on an oversized Christmas card, who interact with one another in bizarre and unusual ways.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 1

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.
