Synopsis

June 6, 1944 marked the beginning of the largest Allied operation of World War II in Normandy, France. Few understand in detail why and how, from the end of 1943 through August 1944, this region became the most important location in the world. Using a blend of cinematographic techniques, including animation, CGI, and live-action imagery, *D-Day: Normandy 1944* presents this historic event on the world’s largest screens for the first time. The film offers audiences of all ages, including new generations, a fresh perspective on how this landing changed the course of history. Covering history, military strategy, science, technology, and human values, the film aims to both educate and engage. Narrated by Tom Brokaw, *D-Day: Normandy 1944* honors those who gave their lives for freedom, fulfilling a duty of memory and gratitude.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 13

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.
