Synopsis
Anna, a babysitter, frightens a small child by telling a story that is anything but a fairy tale. There are no princes in it; it’s not about eternal love. Anna isn’t cruel-hearted, she’s just angry. Her mother has just died. Over a period of 48 hours, Anna hides the truth so as to escape from the reality of her situation.

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.
