Synopsis

The story of four friends who learn important values through gaming and competition, such as the true meaning of respect for others, admiration for key figures in their lives and the value of true friendship. Kibit, Mara, Plunk and Berdi face difficult situations and fight against their own fears, winning the Great Z-Baw Tournament. During their journey, they also face enemies and people more powerful than they are, such as Mr. Zax, who only wants to control Mantar Planet. They also have people supporting them in achieving their dream, like the big Z-Baw legend Rah, whose experience and talent turns them into good players so the story of a great team can be told.

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.

Box Office

2012 · Box office

📉 Underperformed — grossed 0.3× its budget

Why 2.5×?

Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
