Le Fils à Jo
- Comedy
- Drama
Grandson of a legendary rugby player, son of a legendary rugby player, and he himself a legendary rugby player, Jo Canavero raises his only son, Tom, in a small village in the Tarn region. To the great displeasure of Jo, thirteen-year-old Tom is as good at math as he is useless on the rugby field. For a Canavero, the legend can't stop there, even if it means setting up a rugby team specifically for Tom, despite the wishes of the whole village and of Tom himself.
Jo's Boy is a French comedy-drama film released in December 2010 about a legendary rugby family and the clash between tradition and a son's individual talents. When Jo Canavero's thirteen-year-old son Tom shows more promise in mathematics than on the rugby field, Jo sets out to preserve the family legacy by forming a rugby team around the reluctant boy.
