Synopsis
During recess, Lazare, Margot, and Joël, all 10 years old, see their classmates flying out through the classroom windows. The sky, in waves, sucks up everything in its path. If they do nothing, they too will disappear. But Lazare, seated in his wheelchair, sees the unfolding disaster differently.

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.
