Synopsis
Five high school students try to break free and search for happiness by any means necessary: carving their bodies, pretending to be blind, reshaping their image on social media, diving into drugs.
Their intertwined journeys lead them to glimpse a ray of hope—until everything falls apart at 2:14PM.

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.
