Synopsis
Sitting alone at a table laid for two, a woman is about to blow out a candle on a small birthday cake. At this moment, Serge, her boyfriend, arrives. She welcomes him coldly, reproaching him for his lateness and his lies, and threatens to leave. Trying to restrain her, Serge begins to justify himself. If he arrived late, it was because he bumped into Jean, whom he hadn't seen for ten years. Back then, he was a cemetery caretaker, in Sète.

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.
