Synopsis
The Vincennes racetrack on a November Sunday. The horses are in the starting gates. In the turmoil of a crowd fired by the race and possible winnings, a man struggles, cut off from the world. Drowning in the ink of his theories, swallowed up by a world of combinations, figures and forecasts, he experiences the ever renewed crisis of the gambler that ends in the fevrish pounding of the hoofs and the shouts of an ecstatic crowd.

Tender Age, by Julien Gaspar-Oliveri
Sixteen-year-old Diane exists exclusively through her mother's gaze. But this intensely close bond between Diane and her mother, Sophie, is becoming increasingly problematic for the teenager. At high school, she would like to be loved like she is at home and expresses it in an awkward way like when she exchanges a favor for a look, in the toilets. A loudmouth, provocative, and seeking attention, Diane tries to stand apart from her mother and wishes, during a weekend, to live like an adult.
