Synopsis
A father and his son leave in the early hours. Their journey leads them to an isolated village, in front of a house with closed shutters. With, in every sleepy room, the tracks of a person who has just died, the remains of a whole life. Furniture, clothes and objects, as so many indications in the story of a life and a death. The proofs of a real-life experience, the still warm ashes of one presence gone away which the father and his son are going to move to tidy up, to wash. Empty.

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.
