Synopsis

Coal Rush follows the environmental and social empowerment battle waged by over 500 residents of Mingo County, West Virginia. The residents are fighting for their right to safe, clean, fresh drinking water. The fourth largest US coal producer is accused of knowingly polluting the water by dumping billions of gallons of toxic coal sludge underground and putting entire communities at risk.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 3

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.
