The Grey Blind Lake
Synopsis
Jun, a trans woman, is confronted with a vision of her own future when she has to look after her father in his hometown. Her father is elderly and partially immobilised after undergoing eye surgery in an attempt to solve a hereditary problem of sight loss. The imminence of eye degeneration meets the fear of what – quite literally – cannot be seen.

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.
