The Tree
Synopsis
On a bare hill, an isolated oak lives. Further down, a little house inhabited by young newly-weds expecting a baby. In an unexpected way, the oak gives birth to a small bud that it will try to protect with every excess of nature. To its great joy, the bud transforms into a small bush and then into a young tree. But during a huge storm, the dried-out tree is uprooted.

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.
