Synopsis

Eighteen-year-old Jean is the star player of his town's rugby club. He is part of a fiercely united team, and they egg each other on with gruff camaraderie as they defend their winning title in a local tournament. One day, Jean meets his match in Ayoub, a talented new player in a rival team. There is also an attraction between them, and they decide to get to know each other. But while Ayoub seems confident about his sexuality, Jean is nervous about the two of them being seen together. Torn between his growing feelings towards Ayoub and his fear of compromising his status within the club, Jean discovers that his teammates’ solidarity and support is far from unconditional. This short French-language drama delivers an uplifting message about pride and standing up against bigotry through its highly accessible and powerful performances. Please note the film includes homophobic language.

What our educators say

"Some of them saw a clip from Wakolda (The German Doctor) on TV recently and really wanted to watch it. So I thought I’d take a chance, not expecting them to watch the whole film but the majority were absolutely gripped. "
