Synopsis
A park, passers-by, conversations unfolding one after another with no precise purpose, yet revealing far more than meets the eye. Palabres captures these seemingly trivial exchanges, where people talk about everything and nothing… and yet about what truly matters. Absurd discussions, profound reflections and hilarious dialogues intertwine, sketching a snapshot of our time and its questions.
An observational film that humorously explores the way we talk about what defines us, without even realizing it.

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.
