Day of Dust
Synopsis
In the darkness of an African night, radio sets sizzle. A military coup d'état has just taken place. This evening and in the days that follow, I try to understand what has changed the people who live in the country. What is the incidence of these events on their faces, on their bodies? I look at them, they observe me. I am a foreigner, a white person.

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.
