In Dreams, When You Can't Sleep At Night
Synopsis
« In the film, I reenact testimonies from Israeli snipers during the Second Intifada, embodied by a character filmed with a thermal camera. In a spectral closed setting, I question him. At the same time, in the privacy of my Parisian apartment, I probe my own responsibility in the ideological fabrication of violence. »

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.
