In a small French town, the life of a group of rugby enthusiasts turns into a whirlwind of fun and craziness. It all begins when a frustrated former rugby player, Jacques, decides to gather a ragtag group of people to form a team yearning to relive their past glory. From students to office workers, the team is made up of a quirky mix of characters who, despite their lack of skills and experience, are ready to give their all.
As they prepare for a local tournament, antics and rivalries ensue. From disastrous scrimmages and absurd training sessions to complicated relationships among team members, each day brings a new adventure. Comedic entanglements between the players and their families, the struggle for victory, and unrequited love weave together, creating hilarious and poignant moments that bring the film to life.
The story also highlights Jacques’s internal struggle as he seeks redemption not only for his team but also for himself, confronting his own fears and insecurities. However, the true essence of the film lies in the friendship and sense of community forged among these lost souls, teaching them that sometimes, true triumph is not measured in points, but in the bonds we build. Rugby may be the backdrop, but the real story is one of hearts beating in unison.
