Synopsis
A thousand years ago, women were forced into silence by being turned into flowers. Some of them continued to sing.
Florent is the only one who can hear their millennia-old melodies. He builds his fame on their voices. After one final
abuse on his part, they fall silent. Desperate, he embarks on a quest for their final song.

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.
