Synopsis
Death has the capacity to transform the defunct into perfect people. But do our memories and the image that we maintain of the dead really reflect the reality of their lives? During a nightmarish and fantastical night, a young man will witness, to his own cost, the dead rising up against this hypocritical stance.

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.
