La Vie de château
Synopsis
At Small Castle, asylum seekers from around the world keep themselves busy while waiting to know if their demand will be accepted. But the name of the place invites to a tale, with its acrid humor, little by little, the castle becomes populated by a princess who spits snakes, a generous king, ghosts haunting corridors.

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.
