Storyline
A young Cajun boy named Alexander Napolean Ulysses Latour spends his time on a Louisiana bayou. There he plays, fishes and hunts, worrying only about the alligators which infest its waters. The boy's innocent routine changes forever when his father signs a lease agreement with an oil company which brings a derrick into their corner of the bayou.

Trivia
After a screen test had been shot of Joseph Boudreaux, but before he had been chosen for the roll of The Boy, his uncle gave him a G.I. haircut. The production waited to shoot until his hair had grown back. See more »Goofs
Continuity: In the opening sequence, when The Boy first spots the raccoon, his hair is neat. Then it's mussed. Then it's neat again. See more »
