Synopsis
Amina, a little girl aged ten or so, is hired as a servant for two sisters who live alone in an old bourgeois house. One of them is ill. Amina soon discovers that her fits are just a pretext, a cry for help to bring a man to the house : the doctor.

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.
