Russian Therapy
Synopsis
How will Charles manage to become a man again now that his wife has left him, that he can't even roll a simple joint and that even his cleaner thinks he's a jerk ? By inviting Leonid, a chimney-sweep with a Russian accent to join him? By letting him move in while he's still living in his appartment? By talking to him frankly and listening blindly to his suggestions? Russian therapy has its good points, even if its founding principles are rather strange...

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.
