Jo’s Boy

In a small French village nestled in the Tarn region, Jo Canavero, a legendary rugby player carrying on the sporting legacy of his father, is now raising his son Tom with the same high expectations. A seemingly natural fit for following in his grandfather and father's footsteps, thirteen-year-old Tom proves to be quite the opposite when it comes to rugby talent; he excels at mathematics but struggles on the field. This mismatch of skills leaves Jo dismayed and determined, as he cannot fathom a Canavero legacy ending abruptly with him. Consequently, Jo takes matters into his own hands and forms a rugby team exclusively for Tom, against the whole village's expectations and even Tom's wishes. This heartwarming tale explores family legacies, the pressures of living up to expectations, and the importance of embracing one's unique passions and skills.
