Synopsis

In 1818 in the Münsterland region, numerous pilgrims seeking solace and comfort visit the bedside of Anna Katharina von Emmerich, a nun whose body displays marks resembling the holy wounds of Christ on her chest, forehead, and hands. Clemens von Brentano, a prominent artist of the time, visits the nun's sickbed as a "writer of the wonders of God," tasked with recording her visions and beliefs. He views himself as in control of his life as a devout Catholic. However, the encounter with the charismatic nun proves to be a turning point—for both of them.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 21

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.
