France – 52 min. – directed by Frank Lorrain – Armenian and French with English subtitles – North American Premiere
The Armenian National Rugby team, which is composed 90% of players from France, needs to find native Armenian rugby players in order to abide by the requirements of the sport’s ruling body, the International Rugby Board. Life is imitated through sport in this enjoyable film that provides an unlikely analogy between the struggles of this emerging nation since the collapse of the Soviet Union, with the trials and tribulations of its national rugby union.
