The Fireflies
Synopsis
In the 1920s, female factory workers paint phosphorescent watch dials. Mollie, the new hire, makes a mistake that forces her workstation to stay behind and work through the night. Deprived of the dance they were supposed to attend, they end up staging their own impromptu dance in the factory.

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.
