About
The haïku is a poetic shape very codified by Japanese origin and in strong symbolic constituent. It is about an extremely brief poem to express the évanescence of things.
Haïku groups together seven very short movies being inspired by this shape of expression and retranscribing it in a visual way.

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.
