Synopsis
Mimi is bulimic and deeply uncomfortable in her own skin.
Confronted with the beauty standards imposed by social media, she internalizes the gaze of others until she gradually loses herself. What begins as an ordinary pressure slowly slips into a more intimate and silent form of violence.
Blurring the line between reality and symbolism, the film explores the brutality of contemporary beauty standards and the way they can shape or destroy a person's identity.

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.
