A Film Far Beyond a God
Synopsis
A Film Far Beyond God is a documentary in the form of a visual poem about Hubal, a kind of pilgrimage where cultural rites are revived by the act of filming. The film intends to lift the veil on Hubal, Mecca's first god, before the birth of Islam, and to do so in such a way as to make a fragment of history accessible to a large number of spectators and allow them to question it.

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.
