Synopsis

Mark Jansen, a widower, owns and operates the local newspaper in the Midwest town where he was raised. As he faces financial difficulties, his daughter takes it upon herself to bring him happiness by visiting the town's famous wishing well and making a wish for his well-being. Soon after, a striking woman named Cynthia Tamerline arrives in town. Guided by Mark's daughter, Cynthia visits the well and casts her own wish. The following morning, she awakens to discover she has been transported to an alternate universe, an experience that profoundly alters her life.

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.
