Synopsis
Gérard, forty-something, still lives with his mother, the only woman in his life. They live on the first floor of what was once a grand mansion, sharing it with Mr. Foucard, tenant on the ground floor. Foucard is a small-time lawyer specializing in sordid sex cases. But Mom has raised her son according to her own very personal moral standards and strict principles handed down from her deceased husband that leave no room for any personal freedom.

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.
