Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Jimmy Rivière is a young Gypsy, has a sunny but nervous disposition. Sometimes too nervous. Under pressure from his community, he converts to Pentacostalism and renounces his two passions: Thai boxing and Sonia. But how can he refuse the new fight that his trainer proposes? And how can he resist the powerful desire that draws him to Sonia?

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
