Synopsis

A subtle lyrical story about youth, the search for truth, and the first painful experiences of love. The film features three protagonists who live in Tashkent. Rodin, a kind and whole person, struggles to live with a girl who does not love him, and he ultimately saves her from the need to lie and suffer. Rustam's life takes a different path; he is loving and talented. The third protagonist, Thassos, born Greek, returns to his homeland where he finds his mother and sister, but instead encounters the junta of the "grey colonels."

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 17

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.
