Synopsis
I was tiny, but I can still remember clearly. Mom and Dad were totally hoodwinked, but I immediately knew. The thing in the cradle was not my little brother. No. It was you. You already looked funny. And, what's more, you stank. Huh, Tadpole?

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.
