Synopsis
Aman fills out forms behind his desk, a woman repairs a lamp, a street musician plays guitar and a police officer prepares for work. Meanwhile, life goes on outside. But is there really a life outside? Or are we all inside? An experiment in visual storytelling, evoking the struggle to comprehend the larger world, while being trapped like a cog in a machine.

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.
