Filmed on location in the western French Alps, this earthy romp offers a realistic insight into the hardscrabble life of French agriculture, a moving romance and an ode to the love of cheese. 18-year-old Totone spends most of his time drinking beer and partying with his friends in the Jura region of France. But when he’s unexpectedly faced with taking care of his young sister and making a living, he decides to enter a competition for the best Comté cheese in the region – hoping to win gold and a 30,000 euro prize. 

Featuring a lively ensemble cast of first-time actors drawn from the region with an especially charming performance from its young lead.
