Synopsis
For twenty years, Madina Aidahis and Halima Issé have been fighting persistently to end the practice of excision and the infibulation in the Ethiopian Afar country. Every day, they cross the villages of the region of Gawani to bring awarness to the inhabitants of the fatal effects caused by these feminine genital mutilations. Since 2005, their fight has taken an international dimension. Supported by the French feminist's movement Femmes Solidaires, Madina and Halima have managed to save more than eight hundred and fifty girls.

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.
