Au son du bendir
Synopsis
This documentary retraces the origin of oriental dancing and shows its daily practice through shows and dance workshops. It gives different points of view and depicts the complexity of the relationship between religion and family on the one hand, and dance, pleasure, and femininity on the other. It strives to show another image of oriental dancing, so often linked in the West to the term - simplistic, to say the least - belly dance.

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.
