Insectopedia
Synopsis
Brussels. One day at a flea market I found a suitcase filled with reels of 16mm film that belonged to a mysterious Doctor Veroft. A keen insect enthusiast, he had spent fifty years filming all kinds of bugs, dissecting them, observing them, taking notes. The line between fascination and obsession seemed to blur. Like an investigator, I decided to try to find out what lay behind this man's strange passion.

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.
