Synopsis

Realizing no one is coming to save them from a growing opioid crisis, the people of Portsmouth Ohio, led by Army veteran Dale King, band together to create real change in their small Appalachian town. Their strategy is unorthodox. They take on fentanyl, the most lethal drug on the planet, through fitness. Fueled by the energy and community of Dale's gym, we follow the town's comeback through the lens of one woman's recovery. Small Town Strong is a story that's evolved over 4 years.

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.
