In Pursuit of the Absolute
Synopsis
Shepherds, dogs, and a flock of two thousand ewes in the grandiose mountain landscapes of the Pyrenees. In Pursuit of the Absolute evokes the solitude, marginality and passion of these men, in a poetic narrative that resonates with the art of dance. The same quest for elevation and transcendence unites the dancer and the shepherd. A quest for freedom, truth, and the absolute.

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.
