Synopsis

In a small Iowa town, Charlie "Champ" Hannen is the envy of town. A football scholarship is his ticket out of there and he is destined for greatness. But destiny takes him down another path when his biggest fan dies, his mother. With her, part of Champ also dies. The story picks up ten years later, upon his fathers passing, when Champ can't escape his past anymore. He must reconcile troubled relationships. When friends and family members return home for the funeral and the reading of the will, Champ must confront demons from his past and determine the future for himself and his fractured family.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 14

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.

Craft leads on file
