Free Eliza (Notes Of An Anatomical Imperfection)
Synopsis
Eliza works at a hotel resort, moving through a cycle of roles designed to always keep the guests satisfied. Behind the polished surface of the hotel, she struggles to balance an unseen private life, all while carrying a rare anatomical condition: she is physically unable to smile. In a world obsessed with toxic positivity, Eliza must decide whether to change herself to fit in, or to resist by remaining exactly who she is.

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.
