Liberian Boy
Synopsis
Jules had been hard at work rehearsing the steps to «Billie Jean» for the end-of-the-year show. That same year, he jumped onstage in the middle of a post-rock concert, took off his shirt, leapt into the crowd. That’s when we started to film him. Then we offered to spend a day in a studio and film him dancing.

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.
