The Enumerators

The Terminator. The Negotiator. The Transporter. The Professional. The Fugitive. The Avengers. The Killer. The Saint. The Hunted. The Recruit. The Hitcher. The Peacemaker. The Sentinel.

Have you deciphered yet what I just enumerated? Can you enumerate more movie titles of these kind? Ever hated the "enumeration" type of exam? Would you watch if there will be a movie called "The Enumerators". Would you even know what the story might be about?

Well, you probably won't. You probably will think, it will be about peope who count. And you may be right. But technically, an enumerator is defined as "someone who collects census data by visiting individual homes." It's not a job welcomed by a lot of people. Much like missionaries or sales representative of some sort knocking on doors, looking for respondents, not knowing if they will be welcomed or not, snapped at or served a drink.

But here, let me introduce you to The Enumerators. The good bunch who kept themselves cheerful in San Miguel Island despite the long walks, the long talks and the difficult finds. They would edit their survey questionnaires with just candle or a kerosene lamp each night, or go for a swim, sing, dance, date, crack jokes, and engage in serious talks when they feel so. They each have a profession, a story to tell and a unique personality to blend, but for 10 exciting days, they were The Enumerators. [Tagline: They ask. You answer.]
