Synopsis
Summer’s almost over, but there’s something fifteen-year-old Camélia has to do real quick before school starts: She approaches her best friend Salah with an unusual request — and afterward, nothing will ever be the same again. Things sizzle and murmur at the deserted river bed. The flickering in the air and in her heart only calms down as the sun begins to set.

Changing Rooms, by Violette Gitton
César is 12 when his older sister Lou is sexually assaulted. In the changing rooms of the fencing classes he attends, everything is measured by the yardstick of violence. César would like to take part in every fight, but he doesn’t have the weapons.
