Synopsis

Rebecca, a young blonde translator, lives with her boyfriend Marco, a ski instructor, in a mountain villa owned by her friend Laura, who works as a nurse. Local cinema projectionist Rene steals Marco’s car and crashes it into Theo, a local resident; Theo’s daughter later dies after a period in a coma. Rene experiences partial short‑term memory loss and begins a relationship with Laura. Meanwhile, Marco searches for the man who stole his car, while Theo seeks the person responsible for his daughter’s death.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 19

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.
