Synopsis
A worker is laid off work for some weeks. In seven sequences, one by each day of the week, the movie follows him in the daily activities during this unemployed period. Off, the voice of the worker evokes the way he feels this pause in his work. These few fragments of a common life seized by the crisis, give to see the real consequences of the economic depression.

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.
