Black Flowers
Synopsis
Baptiste Bessette went to Hiroshima to question the city about the shadows of its past and the cogs of its future. A vital lead: the ginkgo biloba, this prehistoric tree about which we say that it is the only one to have survived the disaster and its leaves remind us of a butterfly.

Changing Rooms, by Violette Gitton
César is 12 when his older sister Lou is sexually assaulted. In the changing rooms of the fencing classes he attends, everything is measured by the yardstick of violence. César would like to take part in every fight, but he doesn’t have the weapons.
