Cushing's Syndrome
Synopsis
Michaël Steinberg is affected by the syndrome of Cushing, a hormonal disease with the psychiatric consequences. Interned in an intensive care unit, he tries to escape by thought his body and his sick spirit and becomes then an elegant and ambitious trader to whom everything smiles. But his disease, always present in his imaginary world, lets glimpse an inhabited and complex character, sinking little by little into the madness, until killing.

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.
