Synopsis

In the secluded campgrounds of Yosemite Valley, climbers developed a counterculture lifestyle characterized by dumpster-diving and spontaneous gatherings, which often conflicted with the conservative policies of the National Park Service. Meanwhile, on the park's towering rock faces, successive generations of climbers have continually tested the boundaries of the sport, competing for dominance on Yosemite's iconic cliffs. "Valley Uprising" chronicles this dynamic rock climbing tradition in Yosemite National Park, detailing over fifty years of efforts to overcome both the physical challenges of gravity and the regulatory constraints imposed by park authorities.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 19

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.
