Synopsis

It has been seven years since Frederic took his wife and son on a summer vacation away from Paris. This year, he is determined to provide them with an unforgettable holiday at all costs. However, his unscrupulous boss takes advantage of his generosity and fails to pay him properly. Unable to afford a hotel, Frederic makes a deal with his friend Jean-Luc, the director of a luxury resort in southern France. Their secret agreement is simple: one day of work in exchange for one day at the resort. Frederic must perform increasingly outrageous and distasteful tasks to keep the resort running, all while being separated from his wife and son, who remain unaware of the arrangement. What follows is a mix of comedy and horror as Jean-Luc attempts to seduce Frederic’s wife, and Frederic finds himself in increasingly absurd and ridiculous situations. The question remains: will someone come to his rescue to save their vacation—and his marriage?

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.
