MIFF | 8° Film Festival Internazionale di Milano - The Rocket / Charles Binamé / Roy Dupuis, Maurice Richard, Stephen MacHattie, Philip Craig, Julie Le Breto The Rocket Roy Dupuis, Maurice Richard, Stephen MacHattie, Philip Craig, Julie Le Breto
The only thing that matters to 17 year-old Maurice Richard is playing hockey. Every night, after labouring to earn a living at a Montreal factory, he laces up his skates and throws himself onto the ice. His dream: becoming a national hockey league player. ‘The Rocket’ chronicles the rise of Maurice into one of the greatest hockey players in National Hockey League history. A player fuelled more by passion than by talent and agility alone.. Throughout his career, Maurice’s exploits resonate in the hearts and souls of Canadians, making him a hero for generations to come.
