In January 1943 the German army, fearing an Allied invasion of the Balkans, launched a major offensive against Yugoslav Partisans in western Bosnia. The bridge over the Neretra River provided the only escape route for Partisan forces and thousands of refugees.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 22

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.
