The Heretics
Synopsis
In the XIIth century, violent confrontations broke out in the Languedoc region of southern France where the Roman Catholic Church persecuted the followers of what it considered a sect: the Cathars or Albigeois. The conflict lasted more than 35 years, and was marked by unprecedented violence and massacres. Claude Laporte returns to the scene where the Albigeois lived the end of the “Cathar heresy”.

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.
