Synopsis

The Cucumber Incident is the true-life account of a family's unconventional struggle for justice After they learn that one of their youngest members, a five-year-old girl, was being sexually molested by her stepfather (and his own 2yo daughter), the girl's grandmother, sister-in-law, and daughters act out an odd and impassioned act of retribution against the molester in their midst (wielding a cucumber as their weapon). The band of women soon found themselves charged with kidnapping and rape, then thrown into a dizzying maze of media sensationalism and legal nightmares. They are now registered sex offenders.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 3

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.
