Synopsis

In 1988 East Germany, Jürgen Kaiser works as an agent for the state security service and remains loyal to the party, though he is concerned about his son Marco, who is a punk. After Marco is arrested following a concert, he is sent to the army, where he unexpectedly begins to embrace socialism and believes he must defend the country from the capitalist threat. Jürgen is taken aback by this shift, while his wife Hanna and Marco's girlfriend Anja, who support the civil rights movement, disapprove of his new outlook.

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.
