The story of two girls. Saadia was raped after fierce resistance, which allowed her to take revenge by killing her attacker, but the village men's council felt she had been provocative and sentenced her to death.

His lover comes back hastily but drowns. Became crazy, she succumbs in turn.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 13

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.

Craft leads on file
