Only Silence
Synopsis
With looming threats in her own country, Neda, a Syrian student, takes refuge in France, leaving her mother and young brother in the war zone. Worried sick, she constantly tries to contact them on Skype, but it's difficult to get a connection, and her anxiety from living in exile only worsens.

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.
