Summaries

An aspiring tennis player is taken under the wing of an established player as his family life falls apart.

A sixteen-year-old aspiring tennis pro neglects his education in hopes of volleying his way straight to Wimbledon, but finds his ambitions sidelined when his relationship with his tutor takes a decidedly personal turn. Jonas has just failed his exams, but who needs an education when you're a world-famous athlete. Unfortunately, Jonas hasn't achieved that level of fame just yet, though he's convinced that he's well on his way. When thirty-year-old Pierre offers to tutor Jonas and the cocky young athlete turns his back on school entirely, the boundaries of their relationship become increasingly blurred.—Movie Reviews
