Synopsis
In a Parisian apartment, Paul, Tom, and Hugo—three longtime friends—are having dinner before heading out to a nightclub. The alcohol is flowing freely, and the meal is going smoothly, until a discussion begins over the phrase: “If you want to, you can.” Paul hates it; he sees it as a conservative stance, while Tom and Hugo think it’s actually quite accurate. The debate begins, and the meal is about to go south.

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.
