Within the Oval family, the ‘big boys’ form a clan, and it’s in the sweaty den of the scrum that they really come into their own. They do the dirty work! Far from the glamorous, glossy rugby of the Dieux du Stade, this film gives us a glimpse into the singular world of the pillars.
A strange alchemy, made up of suffering, a complex relationship with the body, Herculean battles and immense fraternity. Whether in the toughest training sessions, the pre-match changing rooms or at the heart of the scrum, meeting the forçats of the oval ball is an almost anachronistic journey to the very essence of rugby.
Screening in the presence of Nicolas Bergès, director of the documentary, and Mickaël Lebel, sporting director of the SSGL XV.
