The Half of It
A shy, brilliant student teams up with a socially awkward jock to craft the perfect love letters for the most popular girl in school, only to discover she’s falling for the same girl herself, forcing them to confront friendship, desire, and the truth behind their deception.
“A different kind of love story.”
Synopsis

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 22
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.
