Jimmy Rivière (2011) - film review
Teddy Lussi-Modeste
Drama
Summary
Jimmy Rivière is a young gypsy who is perhaps a little too timid
and willing to please those around him. Pressurised by his
community, he converts to Pentecostalism and gives up his two passions:
Thai boxing and his girlfriend Sonia. But how can he turn down
the offer of a new fight from his coach? And how can he resist
the overwhelming desire that binds him to Sonia?
