Synopsis

It is Christmas Eve, and the Silberhaus children are looking forward to the upcoming festivities. Marie and Fritz are playing in the children's room when their godfather, Drosselmayer, arrives and gives them an early Christmas gift: a Nutcracker. Marie witnesses a dramatic battle between an army of toy soldiers led by the Nutcracker and a group of mice commanded by the Mouse King. She and Fritz then embark on a journey through the Kingdom of Dolls, the Christmas Forest, the Almond Milk Sea, and the Palace of the Marzipans.

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.
