Synopsis
A solicitor has a phone call from some extraterrestrials who wish to buy the Earth. Thanks to a time trick, they are able to prove that they were the original owners of the place and so demand centuries of back rent. When the world leaders turn them down, they cut off the water, gas and electricity supplies.

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.
