Synopsis
Mira, disobeying her parents, stays home alone for the first time during school break… She thinks herself strong and self-reliant, but will be prooved wrong when fear comes upon her. The moments passed with her only friend Mathieu stir up her confusion. Gradualy, fear permeates everything. A shadow hunts her, a shadow feeding on her refusal to grow up and become a woman.

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.
