The Friend
Synopsis
Iris, a writer living in New York City, experiences a disruption in her quiet, solitary life when her closest friend and mentor leaves her a Great Dane named Apollo. The arrival of the large dog brings both logistical challenges—such as damage to furniture and eviction threats—and deeper emotional conflicts. As Iris gradually forms a bond with Apollo, she begins to confront her past and reevaluate her creative identity.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 24
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.
