Synopsis
A child is hastily entrusted by his mother to distant relatives. Their television set broadcasts reports on the depletion of natural resources and collapse. The child overcomes his fear and boredom by exploring the apartment, which, like the couple who have difficulty resisting a nap, seems suspended in time. Frightened, he clings to sounds, details, and sensations.

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.
