Synopsis
Four months pregnant, Eugénie Zvonkine loses her second daughter, Marie, to a medical abortion. This personal trauma, known as perinatal grief, prompts Eugénie to embark on a cinematic journey. She films three other mothers, Juliette, Ikram, and Kamila, who have also experienced the loss of their baby. Together, they transform Le Sentier des absents into a quest to express the silent pain of losing a child. The film is an intimate exploration of their journey through grief, from darkness to dawn.

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.
