Synopsis

On the early morning of his 40th birthday, Dave wanders the streets, defeated and alone. Music from a bygone era is his great passion, to which he has devoted his life. However, his dedication goes unnoticed, and his dreams seem to be fading. His situation worsens until he is offered a job: a wedding in Connecticut. It gives him one final opportunity to perform, though it comes with a challenge—he must play with a band he has never met before.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 8

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.
