Documentary, 17min To ward off the curse of osteoporosis that hangs over the women in her family, the filmmaker's mother urges her to exercise. She joins a strength-training class attended by older women who love to sing and share coffee together.

In their company, the filmmaker explores her relationship to her mother's fragility and attempts to rethink her own perception of old age.

Morgane Beslay – Le Mur – 2026 #1

by Morgane Beslay

Eliane and Laure, recently separated, are preparing to leave the apartment they shared. Eliane is packing her last boxes when she discovers dampness on the living room wall. Refusing to be solely responsible for the damage, she decides to call Laure for help. As the two women are forced to spend these last moments repainting the wall together, buried emotions resurface, marking the final steps toward their goodbye. Le Mur centers the "behind closed doors" question around a single object: a wall. Therefore, the actresses' performances and the set design almost single-handedly carry the narrative, making even the slightest interactions with the object more meaningful than any words.

Robin Kaufmann – Sous ma peau

by Robin Kaufmann

One evening, Gabriel throws a party with his friends to celebrate the conviction of the man who abused him as a child. With Lucien by his side, he turns the party into a flirty dance floor in an attempt to escape his past. Caught between Lucien's gentleness and his own need for desire, Gabriel unwittingly reenacts the confusion between affection and control. Over the course of a single night, Under My Skin explores the intimate repercussions of sexual violence and how it shapes emotional relationships. Through the relationship between Gabriel and Lucien, the film follows a character who can only conceive of his relationships with men through desire, and is confronted with a kind of intimacy he no longer recognizes.

Jann Kessler – se métamorphoser ?

by Jann Kessler

How can one learn to have healthy relationships, on equal terms with the other? With the help of the camera, the filmmaker explores the relational dynamics between him and two close friends, Mar and Christal, through various therapeutic scenarios. In doing so, he confronts his own self-hatred, which turns out to be a tragic attempt to avoid repeating, as musch as possible, his own toxic masculine patterns. From this project, and through the medium of the camera, emerges a reflection on self-love, openness to others, overcoming shame, and the benefits of artistic creation on mental health.
