After 'A kingdom awaits you' and 'The return to the earth', the filmmaker Pierre Perrault concludes, with this documentary feature, his plea for the Abitibi region. The film gives the floor to Hauris Lalancette, farmer, colorful character, who has been fighting for almost half a century to save his kingdom in the Abitibi.

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.
