Twenty Five Hundred & One

Documentary

Synopsis

Like countless villages across the globe, the pueblo where Oaxacan artist Alejandro Santiago was born is only grandparents and children, the adults gone, victims of globalization seeking jobs in other countries. To focus attention on this crucial issue, Alejandro devoted six years of his life sculpting 2,501 life size figures to honor his pueblo's ""lost souls."" His ""migrantes"" hauntingly portray issues we must confront. Grand Prize - San Antonio Film Festival Best Documentary - Sacramento and Reel HeART International Film Festivals

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 4

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.
