Louisiana Story
The idyllic life of a young Cajun boy and his pet raccoon is disrupted when the tranquility of the bayou is broken by an oil well drilling near his home.
From the archive
A young Cajun boy named Alexander Napolean Ulysses Latour (Joseph Boudreaux) 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 (Lionel Le Blanc) signs a lease agreement with an oil company which brings a derrick into their corner of the bayou.
