Synopsis

Singer-songwriter Sophie B. Hawkins, who broke into mainstream success with her 1992 hit "Damn, I Wish I Was Your Lover," is a talented writer and performer whose songs are both emotional and intelligent. In this musical portrait of the artist, director Gigi Gaston combines concert footage with intimate clips of Hawkins in everyday life for a film that gets to the heart of Hawkins's turbulent emotional world and artistic journey.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 10

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.
