Synopsis

In the Landes de Gascogne forest, bird cages are hoisted up to the tree tops with pulleys. A man on watch in a large low hut camouflaged by pine needles awaits the opportune moment to pull the strings. A strange and fascinating woodland theatre... Bucking all commentary, Marine de Contes depicts a practice in all its ritualistic complexity.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 2

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.
