Synopsis

In a remote mountain village, the lives of three generations of a family are defined by hardship and loss. The aging grandmother fears death while her son struggles to find work and becomes increasingly anxious and impoverished. Meanwhile, her grandson returns from the city to start a chicken farming business, only to fail and go into debt. The village, named after a mythical rock representing a fallen turtle, seems to bind its inhabitants to a shared destiny of defeat and struggle.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 3

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.
