Synopsis

Elizabeth Holmes gained recognition as the world's youngest self-made billionaire through her company Theranos, which claimed to have developed a revolutionary blood-testing technology. She was often compared to tech innovator Steve Jobs. However, the company's valuation of $10 billion collapsed amid scrutiny over the accuracy and capabilities of its technology. The story of Theranos offers insight into the psychological dynamics of corporate fraud.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

A crew of 47+ credited

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.
