Holy Cow (Vingt dieux)

Holy Cow (2024) is the vibrant and heartfelt debut feature by Louise Courvoisier. Set in rural France’s Jura region, it follows 18-year-old Totone, whose life turns upside down after his father’s death. Suddenly responsible for his younger sister and their failing farm, Totone channels all his hope into winning a prestigious Comté cheese competition — despite knowing nothing of cheesemaking. With warmth, humour and raw authenticity, the film blends social realism with romance and ambition. Featuring non-professional actors and a deep connection to its landscape, Holy Cow is a quietly powerful coming-of-age journey.
