Synopsis
A music short film companion to Mac Miller's posthumous album Balloonerism, created in collaboration with his family. When a chord organ's haunting melody transfigures a group of school friends, they're thrust into a shadow realm where childhood dissolves into the dark waters of adulthood. Pursued by the relentless turtle of time, they navigate a surreal underworld that mirrors Mac Miller's lyrical exploration of innocence lost, self-destruction, and the weight of growing up.

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.
