Hot tempered and fiercely independent, Julia finds her escape in motorcycles and the high-octane world of urban rodeos, which are illicit gatherings where riders show off their bikes and their latest daring stunts. After a chance meeting at a rodeo, Julia finds herself drawn into a clandestine clique and strives to prove herself to the ultra-masculine group. Julia is then faced with a series of escalating demands that will make or break her place in the community.

Lola Quivoron's debut feature is an energetic and intense view of a struggling woman in an overtly masculine environment. RODEO was nominated for multiple awards at Cannes and won the Un Certain Regard - Jury Coup de Coeur prize.
