Synopsis

During the German occupation of France, Louise (70) resists succumbing to despair and continues to run her small provincial bar, opening its doors every day. The militiamen who gather at the bar are treated as regular customers. She manages to maintain a proper kitchen by purchasing supplies from the black market, a fact that everyone chooses to ignore. In early 1943, on a cold January day, an English paratrooper lands in a tree near the bar. Louise, ever fearless, goes to his aid and, with Emile's help, hides the soldier in her cellar. Unaware of the consequences, Louise has just become involved with the resistance.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 18

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.
