Sentimental Samouraï
Synopsis
Conversations interposed on answering machines. Two people look for answers for their future and have exchanges without ever really speaking to each other. It is a story of crossing, of meetings which do not occur. There is in this movie a love of idleness, the knowledge to wait, to look, to take advantage, which is served by a samurai photographer. Funny and moving, he tries to approach a girl spotted in the street, and a woman who reads tarot cards, out of inspiration because still loving a departed man. Their vocal messages are going to give rhythm to this light and just movie, attractive photographies of moments of expectation.

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.
