Synopsis
Patrick Dubois is a widower and retired geography teacher who has been living in the same apartment for forty-five years, a three-room chaos in the centre of Paris. Muffled up in a threadbare, terry-towelling bathrobe, he spends his days listening to Radio Tango on an old, battered transistor radio, while drawing maps of former empires. His only link with the outside world is now Leslie, the concierge's daughter, who brings him his groceries.

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.
