Par-delà les saisons, à Baltriškės
Synopsis
A few months after Lithuania's independence in 1991, as the country began its slow recovery from fifty years of occupation, a group of young people invited the monastic community of the Fraternity of Tiberiade to organize a retreat. The fraternity soon found itself faced with an unexpected challenge. How could they respond to such a demand when their community was so small and still in the process of establishing itself? Fathers Marc and Joseph decided to take a leap of faith. A former kolkhoze, or collective farm, was converted into a small village comprising a dozen members. Gradually, young people and families arrived to experience the joy of living out the Gospel. After more than twenty years, the first Lithuanian priest made a permanent commitment to the organization.
This story recounts a history that follows the seasons of the fidelity of God, who constantly watches over us and invites us to have trust.

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.
