Synopsis

The hero is a black man from Martinique who feels nostalgic for his island and is on his own in France. He falls in love with an au pair girl but has a love affair with a married woman, Mrs Courtalès. He kills the husband in self-defense. But eight months later, he is arrested by the Police. Philippe's fate depends on a child's birth. It will not be what he's expecting.

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.
