The Abandoned
A film producer returns to Russia to uncover the truth about her family, only to discover a haunted inheritance, a mysterious twin brother, and doppelgängers that force them to confront a deadly fate from 40 years ago.
“Death never runs out of time.”
Synopsis
Marie, a film producer, returns to her native Russia in search of her birth parents. She soon discovers they have died and that she has inherited their abandoned farmhouse. At the property, she meets Nicolai, who claims to be her twin brother. The situation becomes increasingly unsettling when they encounter two horrifying doppelgängers, and the house appears to drive them toward a fate they were meant to face 40 years prior.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 20
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.

⚖️ Fell short of break-even — grossed 1.5× its budget
Why 2.5×?
Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
