Synopsis

Ira Einhorn was a social activist in the early 1970s who became the subject of a criminal investigation after his girlfriend, Harriet Pieper, disappeared. She was later found dead in a bathtub, and Einhorn was suspected of her murder. After evading authorities for several years, Einhorn fled the United States and was eventually arrested in France in 1984. He was extradited back to the U.S. and stood trial for Pieper's murder.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 19

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.
