Synopsis

A donkey, working as a tourist attraction at the "Animal-Adventure-Park," was kicked out by his boss and began to question the meaning of life. Inspired by people who had complimented his voice, he decided to pursue a musical career and set off for Bremen. Along the way, he met a dog destined to spend the rest of his life in an animal asylum after his old master died. The dog, a skilled drummer, joined the donkey. Later, they encountered a rooster and a cat, both in desperate situations. As accomplished musicians themselves, they joined the group to complete the band. After many adventures, they finally achieved their dream of performing on stage—in Bremen.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 9

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.
