Sunstone
Synopsis
Sunstone follows Fresnel lenses from their production site to their exhibition in leading museums and use in navigation equipment. This film hence explores diverse social contexts that involve optics, by contrasting the triangular system of commerce that followed the first arrivals of the Europeans in the New World with the political potential glimpsed in the Op Art of post-revolutionary Cuba.

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.
