Rencontre à l'Italienne
Synopsis
An unlikely meeting of two friends takes place on a green pasture. One of the two, wandering around with a world-map beach ball, runs into the other who's reading the Corriere delle serra and who's about to get married. They exchange a few metaphysical commentaries : laughable, profound and profoundly laughable. On a friendly impromptu whim, they start to play soccer with the world-map, as if the whole world and its image were at their feet.

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.
