Amal
Synopsis
Amal, alone in the middle of a railway station hall, suitcase in her hand. This is her last journey. A silhouette approaches. It is a mine clearance expert. Because Amal's suitcase contains a bomb.
Amal wanted to die. But the voice of the mine expert is so serene and the hands are so soft that she begins doubting. But not the numbers on the clock.

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.
