The Orphan’s Kaddish
Synopsis
Aharon Appelfeld is a great writer and a survivor. One of those of the last generation. One of the last three surviving writers of the Shoah. Aharon Appelfeld is a singular destiny that holds within him, as a whole, the destiny of a people. He holds within him its entire history, all of history. He inhabits the world, even if it sometimes disappears or is transformed, whether it is the Jewish Bukovina, the Jerusalem cafés of the sixties, the Orthodox in Méa Shéarim (a Jerusalem neighbourhood), or a clean suburb of Jerusalem. Destined for annihilation, Aharon Appelfeld is alive, totally alive, at every moment.

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.
