Synopsis
Corsica, 1774. Based on an emblematic moment in the island's history, Les Pendus du Niolu, the film confronts the adolescence of a young Corsican peasant, Marcumaria, his hands deep in the earth, who hums more than he speaks, with that of Alexandre, a French officer sent to war, who writes to his father about his impressions of this strange country. Close and so different at the same time, they both move toward a tragic outcome.

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.
