Synopsis
For his project Broken Manual, the photographer Alec Soth travelled through America, in search of people who have withdrawn from society. Some people live in huts lost in the mountains, some in caves, others in the desert. It is through the eyes of Alec that we try to understand why these modern hermits want to escape from our society. The photographer shows us a new fantasy: disappearance.

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.
