Curupira and the Machine of the Destiny
Synopsis
Filmed between the Phantom Road BR-319, the Transamazônica BR-230 and in the real village of Realidade (Reality), Curupira and the Machine of the Destiny documents the encounter of the creature Curupira, protectress of the forests, and the incarnated ghost of Iracema, a 14-year-old prostitute. A portrait of 2021 Brazil and the ravage of Amazonia forest: the cyclical history and story of Brazil in favour of a so-called progress and an avenge for the warm ruins of an addicted future.

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.
