Synopsis

Some people are different, in spite of themselves. All they want is to resemble other people, to blend in with the crowd. Some spend their lives trying to do so, denying or trying to hide their difference. Others assume it and thus stand tall, thereby obtaining the place that they dream of in the hearts of others.

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.
