Holy Cow at GFT
Until 17 April, 2025
Eighteen year-old Totone spends most of his time drinking beer and partying in the Jura region with his group of friends until reality catches up with him when he has to take care of his 7-year-old sister and find a way to make a living. He sets out to make the best Comté cheese in the region in an attempt to win the gold medal at the agricultural competition and 30,000 euros.
An unexpected audience hit at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, Holy Cow excels thanks to its graceful direction and authentic performances from its young non-actors. First-time director Louise Courvoisier tells a familiar story from the region where she grew up with a heartfelt honesty and introduces audiences to its cheese-making culture. Winner of the Cannes Un Certain Regard Youth Prize.
