Synopsis

Four murders occur within forty-eight hours in Nice. The killer refers to himself as "The Exterminator," and the police are unable to apprehend him. Tom Lepski, an insurance detective, becomes involved in the investigation when Liza Mendoza, a renowned violinist and his friend, is killed just minutes before he arrives to visit her. After another wealthy woman is murdered, Tom discovers that all the victims were members of the exclusive Fifty Club—except for Liza.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 16

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.
