Synopsis

Leafing through a family album, filling memories and emotions centered on the charismatic figure of the grandfather, captain of a cod fishing boat. A personal landscape, breaking with reality—exposed in the allusive photographs—and the confluence of these two languages—one evocative, the other enchanting—through the Woman, a virtual character. Chapters: 1 - "Spring - Work in White" 2 - "Summer - Work in Red" 3 - "Autumn - Work in Black I" 4 - "Winter - Work in Black II"

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 5

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.
