Synopsis

The film tells the story of a young mafia hitman and his love affair. Zorba's (Kuzey Vargın) father was imprisoned for murder when he was only three years old. He lost his mother shortly thereafter. He began working with mafia members at a young age, but his conscience never left him alone. The young girl he was ordered to kill forces him to confront his conscience once again. Rather than commit murder, he chooses to find a doctor for Selma's (Tijen Par) ailing father. However, this decision will impact Zorba's entire life.

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.
