Rodeo
Raw and exciting feature debut by Lola Quivoron about a young woman seeking to connect with a dirtbike community that organises illegal motocross races.
Hot-tempered and fiercely independent, Julia finds escape in a passion for motorcycles and the high-octane world of urban ‘rodeos’ – illicit gatherings where riders show off their bikes and their latest daring stunts. After a chance meeting at a rodeo, Julia finds herself drawn into a clandestine and volatile clique and, striving to prove herself to the ultra-masculine group, she is faced with a series of escalating demands that will make or break her place in the community.
RODÉO has won several awards, including the Coup de Coeur prize from the Un Certain Regard jury at the Cannes Film Festival.
