Synopsis

A man returned to his home in Kyoto after being away for a year. As he works as a part-timer in Tokyo, his sister decides to sell their childhood home since both of their parents have passed away. One night, he recalls his father’s favorite watch and looks for it, and he stumbles across a notebook titled “My Memories.” He starts to read it and sees the words written on the first page saying “The men I loved, and who passed me by…” and is followed by a record of his father’s love life.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 10

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.
