Synopsis

Milton, a man disillusioned with romance, has resolved to avoid women. He offers a ride to a female hitchhiker, only to find that she, too, is emotionally wounded and has sworn off men. Their journey together is disrupted by an aggressive driver, who later reappears after they establish a camp. He begins to pursue the woman, but when Milton's ex-girlfriend arrives, she confronts the intruder in a fight, allowing Milton and his companion to escape.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 11

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.
