Synopsis

A man, visibly distressed and dressed in a coat and tie, clutches the guardrail at a secluded cliff overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Meanwhile, at an exclusive boys' high school in Rancho Palos Verdes, Mr. Radford teaches classics. His most promising student is Andrew, a diligent and earnest young man. One evening, Andrew visits Mr. Radford's office after being the only student to perform well on a recent exam. Their conversation leads to a sleepless night for the teacher. The next day, Andrew is absent from class, and later, Mr. Radford is shocked to find Andrew and his father waiting outside the principal's office. What does the teacher fear, and what will he do in response?

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 17

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.
