A Chance To Win uses a rugby rivalry to explore the tension between established village identities and the arrival of asylum seekers. The film's strength lies in integrating diverse ethnic backgrounds into a traditional social structure. While it shows progressive intent regarding migration and cultural evolution, it lacks representation for LGBTQ+ individuals and people with disabilities. The focus on rugby may reinforce traditional masculine roles.

Official Synopsis
Two villages in the south of France have always been bitter rivals, but when a group of asylum seekers arrive in the community, the life of both villages is shaken up and age-old disagreements escalate. Their antagonism reaches its peak with the annual rugby derby played between the two village teams, but this time, with the new outsiders joining as unexpected recruits, the result of the 100th match will be more unpredictable than ever.
