The Brothers Karamazov
“Three brothers, one spiritual and living at a monastery, the other - a gambler, and the third - an intellectual, work out their problems in 19th century Russia”
Synopsis
Based on the novel of the same name by Fyodor Dostoevsky, the tragic story of the Karamazov family is set in a Russian province in the late 19th century. The relationships between the father and his three sons are complex and full of contradictions. One of the brothers is accused of murdering their father, a crime he did not commit. The brothers are unable to provide him with support, and only a compassionate young woman accompanies him to hard labor.

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.
