Synopsis
Malian women from Montreuil address in a filmed letter for one person of their choice, real or imaginary. Women from Mali are inspired by it to realize their filmed letter. Each was invited to speak about their work, each jumped at the opportunity to say what is important for her. All participated in the manufacturing of these short films in workshops for audiovisual creation. The group forms a movie which steps over the distances, makes reason with these voices which express the frustrations, the passions, the resistance of these women.

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.
