Synopsis
Filmmaker Dziga Vertov is above all known and appreciated for his formal inventions and his theory about "capturing life unawares." But he was also a tireless promoter of women's causes and of their real emancipation. This film is a personal homage to this aspect of his oeuvre and a militant film-tract which asks the question about women's aspiration for a society freed from patriarchal archaisms and the alienating weight of religious customs.

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.
