The Reel

Comedy

Synopsis

Three friends, who are also young filmmakers, decide to write and shoot a film, starting from the disheartening realization that they only have one roll of film. They contact acquaintances and film producers, even getting involved in long soccer games to please the latter. In the end, they succeed in their endeavor, but... what an effort!

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.
