Alternative credits

Hello. How to solve alternative title credits when movie has different credits in different languages/distibution.

For example movie "Ročník 21"/"Jahrgang 21" https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0171702/reference/ was filmed in Czechoslovak, German coproduction and there are different title credits (different order, names) in German/Czechoslovak distribution.

Hi pturanyi-

We list the credits associated with the first release of the title, so the credits listed are dependent on what was show on screen for the first regional release. Therefore, if the film was first released in Germany, then in Czechoslovak, we will list what was seen on-screen for the German release.

Cheers!

OK but sometime is hard to find out which release was first even when in coproduction case are movies released simultaneously.
