Synopsis

The Salt Paddy Girls, a Mandarin-language color film released in 1968, was the work of renowned director Guo Nanhong, starring AI Li and Wei Su. The film's motivation may have been influenced by the wholesome and realistic film Oyster Girl produced by the Central Motion Pictures Company, which was a combination of the local scenery of Taiwan and a wholesome and positive story. Therefore, the location of Salt Lady was shot in the Anshun Salt Farm in Tainan, and the plot depicts the love of a female worker in the salt farm and the mystery of her life, which includes love entanglements as well as warmth and affection.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 14

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.
