On which sport is the 2002 Canadian film "Men with Brooms" centered?

Men with Brooms is a 2002 Canadian romantic comedy film, starring and directed by Paul Gross. Centered on the sport of curling, the offbeat comedy tells the story of a reunited curling team from a small Canadian town as they work through their respective life issues and struggle to win the championship for the sake of their late coach.

The cast also includes Connor Price, Leslie Nielsen, Peter Outerbridge, Kari Matchett, Molly Parker and Polly Shannon. Members of the Canadian rock band The Tragically Hip make a cameo appearance in the film as a competing rink representing Kingston, Ontario, the band's home city. Winnipeg curler and three-time Brier champion Jeff Stoughton also made a cameo appearance throwing his trademark "spin-o-rama" shot.

I sometimes think these questions might be a bit more difficult without the accompanying photos, which all but spell out the answer! 🙄🤔

I love watching curling, but once every four years is enough.

Stephen W. Gerrard, do you avoid seeing the photo please?

William Laughlin, I agree.

hazelphyllis, Generalized pictures are fine as long as they don't spell out the answers. I like it when 4 pictures are offered, relating to each of the 4 options in some way without making the answers so obvious.

William Laughlin, dammed if you do, dammed if you don't. People complain when the picture gives away the answer and they complain when it doesn't - better off with no picture!!

fdeisner, I'm starting to think that our comments and thumbs up or down are totally irrelevant to Quizzclub. Nothing ever changes. We still get quizzes without answers all the time, despite the large number of complaints. Quizzclub really doesn't care nor do they read the comments. It's seems so futile to complain.

Steve Bush, I LOVE watching and playing golf, although I'm not very good at it. Many do find it boring to watch.

Howard Groopman, Pretty much my thinking about most Olympic sports.

Too easy with the pic, but we learned something and The Tragically Hip is a good band.

Fat finger syndrome did not happen here. Previous question about Canadian summer sport my finger missed lacrosse and hit curling, the choice next to it.
