Synopsis
The dahu is an imaginary wild animal living in the mountainous zones. His legs are shorter on one side (right or left) allow him to stand straight on the steepest slopes, but force him to move always in the same direction. To capture a dahu, we hide in an undergrowth and we wait. When the animal passes, the hunter gives a cry. The dahu turns around then and loses his balance.
Jacques lives isolated in a small hamlet of a mountain. Without warning him, Thierry, an old companion visits him.

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.
