Synopsis
Guillaume is mildly mentally handicapped. He takes a training course for undertakers, learning about the various facets of the job, from the care of the deceased to simulated funeral ceremonies, guided by a female teacher and accompanied by younger trainees. Perhaps here, in this unlikely location and in an uncomfortable situation, he'll find his place.

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.
