Grandson of a rugby legend, son of a rugby legend and a rugby legend himself, Jo Canavaro is raising his son, Tom, on his own in a small village in the south-west of France. 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.
