Synopsis

Élise Lafontaine follows a quiet routine, waving every morning and evening at the express train that passes her house. One day, she discovers a letter from the train conductor in her garden, disrupting her solitary life. The two begin an anonymous correspondence through poetic and thoughtful letters, sharing glimpses of their lives. However, when the train line is permanently rerouted for a more direct path to Paris, Élise refuses to let go of her daily ritual. Determined to find the conductor, she embarks on a bold journey beyond her comfort zone.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 17

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.
