Synopsis

Amy Winslow dreams of attending art college but is unable to secure approval for her financial aid. After seeing a help-wanted ad, she is offered a position with a couple who allow her to live rent-free in their quiet guest home, seemingly a perfect opportunity. However, it soon becomes clear that Joan, the wife, has ulterior motives—she wants Amy to serve as a surrogate mother for her next child. Amy remains unaware of the dark and sinister reasons behind Joan's request, including the scandalous death of Joan's first child and her fear that she may harm another. Before Amy wakes up in the hospital, the baby is secretly adopted, setting off a dangerous confrontation as Joan fights to claim the child for herself.

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.
