Iron Boy (FCP 2026)

In rural France, Christophe tries to live up to his rigid, distant father on the family farm. But the young boy starts to lean over and collapse without warning, on the tractor, at school, at dinner. A doctor finds the solution: Christophe must wear an iron corset to keep himself upright. Forced to reinvent his life away from the farm, he discovers a new passion for music, meets a new friend and follows her into his first mischief. But will any of this really fix what is out of balance?
