Synopsis
The opening of communal graves enclosing the bodies of thirty men shot during the Spanish Civil War shatters the Andalusian village of Santaella. Seventy years after the events, pickax and spades wage a battle for dignity. Earth is dug and we bury ourselves deeply in the memories of the dead men's children.

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.
