Synopsis

Slavoj Žižek, a Slovenian philosopher and psychoanalyst, explores the complex relationship between ideology and popular culture in his analyses of some of the most significant films in cinematic history. With a passionate engagement and deep interest in popular media, Žižek examines how film narratives contribute to the formation and reinforcement of dominant ethical and political beliefs, both at the societal and individual levels.

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.
