Aurora
Synopsis
This is the story of a promise, of a dream ruined by politicians. Aurora is a construction zone where promoters sold land to a poor young population, it’s dream of freedom where everyone could build his own home. In reality it’s an organized shantytown in the suburbs of Mexico City, where the population is marginalized, thus escaping the grinding poverty of the countryside, but also is excluded from the city’s economic growth.

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.
