Description: In this animated film, set in rural Quebec, a young boy argues with his mother over the replacement of his favorite hockey sweater, similar to that of his revered Montreal Canadiens, with one worn by their arch-rivals, the Toronto Maple Leafs. The boy thinks only of disloyalty and the ridicule of his peers; his mother considers only the impracticality of returning the sweater. Combining humor and nostalgia, this film depicts some of the universal fears and joys of childhood.
