Synopsis
Scrolling graphic novel
Straddling the line between graphic novel and animation, Phallaina tells the story of Audrey, a young girl who suffers from hallucinatory fits. When Audrey undergoes medical tests, a neurologist discovers that she has an anomalous cerebral structure that enables her to hold her breath for long periods of time. This story of personal transformation in which mythology meets cognitive sciences is the first scrolling comic strip, available free-of-charge on tablets and mobile devices.

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.
