So his father\u2019s sudden death is like a splash of cold water across his face, thrusting him into adulthood without warning. Now forced to care for his little sister, tend the failing family farm and somehow make a living, he decides that his magical \u201cbig fix\u201d will come by winning a gold medal for the best Comt\u00e9 cheese at the next agricultural competition\u2026 and collecting the \u20ac30,000 grand prize. But attaining discipline, not to mention culinary excellence, is not nearly as easy as he thinks. It\u2019s a little like his best buddy\u2019s beloved stock car racing \u2014 sometimes you have to take a tumble or two before you can move forward. Louise Courvoisier\u2018s coming-of-age first feature,\u00a0Holy Cow, illustrates that bumpy path to maturity in minute, heartfelt detail.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/athome.fandango.com\/content\/browse\/details\/Holy-Cow\/4063521?cmp=MOP_watchathome_tab__athomeonly\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Watch now<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: large;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HOLY COW | 2025 &#8211; 90&#8242; &#8211;\u00a0 Drama, Coming of Age.
