Synopsis

An elderly and respected priest falls from the Golden Gate Bridge, and everyone except his nurse, Sister Benecia, assumes it was suicide. After persistent efforts, Sister Benecia convinces the police department to assign a detective, the cynical and irritable Paul Silver, to look into the case. The "Mad Nun" and the "Mad Cop" form an effective investigative team—and eventually develop a deeper connection.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 17

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.
