No Problem Hotel
Synopsis
In a swimming pool of a hotel in Mali, white women bathe behind a high wall which does not succeed in protecting them from the glance of the black workers on the construction site opposite. How do they see each other? What do we come to see in Africa? Can we see Africa?

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.
