This documentary needs to be filmed in Full HD cameras, 3 are needed, for there will be air shots simultaneously with land shots and by boat. There will be also interviews with people who were young in 1954 and they lived the destruction of their communities, their villages were flooded in 1957.

We  need to have comedians in the role of the main characters, like De Courcelles, Frontenac, De La salle, Talon and so forth, these acters do cost a lot, and also we have to provide  them with the suits and accessories, rifles canoes, tents and so forth.

There will also be some CG (computerized generated images) that will show the devlopment of the canals or channels, reconstitution that can't be made in real.

There are 10 museums devoted for this maritime era, 3 in the USA and 7 in Canada. This needs to be shown and interviews with curators, explaining the 5 W's (What, Why, Where, Who and When) for all to understand.

As an example, the boat evolution, it started with canoes than rabaska, batteau came after and followed by Durham boats, than Barkentine came along with the 3 mass, steamboats with waterwheels than the propeller, ending with diesel boats. The size varied through the years, same with the channels, canals and locks.

The area that this documentary will cover is about 3 500 Km. From Montral to Chicago, passing through all the existing canals and locks of the St lawrence sayway.

I have been working on this documentary for over 7 years now and I am ready to produce it with your help.

I ahave a Cinama college degree, I am a director and also a director of photography, I have benn doing this for the last 30 years, so I know where I am going and I know who will take part of the shooting, technically speaking.

I cannot have, for the amount I am asking, G. Clouny as an actor, and it is not the direction i want to take either, even if I know he would be an asset.

This documentary will be presented to major distributors around the world, I have alreadt been in contact with a french distributer for the european and african market.

So if you want to take part of this journey, be my guest and send me the amount you want, all will be welcome.

All donation over 50,000.$ will be in the acknoledgement section in the generic, this is a publicity for your company or foundation.
