Synopsis

In Rome, a sadistic serial killer begins stalking and murdering sex workers, leaving the community terrified and the authorities struggling to stop the violence. After several attacks, four women—Lena, Angela, Nadine, and Stella—decide they can’t wait to be the next victims, and band together to protect each other and take a more active role in the search. As police pressure mounts and the women start digging for clues on their own, the hunt turns the city into a tense web of fear, rumors, and suspicion.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 16

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.
