Synopsis

Forty-year-old Andreas arrives in a strange city with no memory of how he got there. He is given a job, an apartment, and even a wife. However, he soon begins to notice something is amiss. Andreas tries to escape the city but finds there is no way out. He meets Hugo, who has discovered a crack in the wall of his cellar. From the crack, beautiful music flows. Perhaps it leads to "the other side"? A new escape plan is devised.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 18

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.
