Synopsis
Jerry Makawest is a Tèw Name, a man of the soil in Creole. He lives away from the wild rhythm of the city and goes only to sell his fruits. He lives in the middle of nowhere in his secret garden where, as his grandparents before him, he cultivates and transplants what the nature gave him. He lives humbly in accordance with the earth, the sea and the rivers. He is far from all the fuss made around the ecology and the environment. He lives, simply.

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.
