A Mango Tree in the Front Yard
Synopsis
Twenty-five years ago in Sri Lanka, the struggle for freedom deviated and took on a fascistic nature, even when the barbarous oppression by the Sri Lankan state had only got worse since the beginning of the hostilities. In the middle of this crisis lives a generation full of dreams.

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.
