Synopsis

Princess Miranda resides with her father, the King of the Sea, and her two sisters in a magical underwater palace. She possesses the most beautiful voice in the underwater kingdom, a talent cherished by all its inhabitants. Miranda is deeply curious about the world above the surface and puzzled by why humans do not show the same respect to sea creatures. For her fifteenth birthday, her father grants her the opportunity to visit the human world, accompanied by her loyal friend Acme, an otter. During their journey to the coast, Miranda rescues a drowning man, who is revealed to be a handsome young prince, and he falls in love with her.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 12

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.
