The Finishers
Aka "De toutes nos forces". Julien is 17, has a great sense of humour, bags of charm, and is wheelchair-bound due to cerebral palsy. Despite their love for him, his family is gradually falling apart under the strain. In a bid to bond with his athletic father, Julien challenges him to participate with him in the world-famous Nice Ironman race. Beyond the sporting exploit, this is a moving portrait of the love between a father and his son.
