Synopsis

In 2001, Argentina underwent a catastrophic crisis. Workers illegally occupied their bankrupt factories and relaunched production, working as a cooperative. More than ten years later, these businesses are still operating and more than ten thousand employees have thus been able to keep their jobs. El Aguante traces the results of this experiment by lingering on the intimate transformations that took place for these employees who became bosses. Today, it is Europe that is in crisis and the employees at the FRALIB factory in Marseille who are fighting, inspired by the Argentinean struggles.

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.
