A NOUS LA NUIT - Lison Besangez - 27’ - FR OVAmidst subwoofers and beams of bright light, bonds are formed and strengthened in the intimacy of the night.

LES HUÎTRES - Maia Descamps - 23' - FR OVAt a hen party, Charlotte, aged 30, is reunited with long-standing friends she hasn’t seen for a long time. The euphoria of the reunion is mingled with apprehensions and unspoken truths. Charlotte has a secret she keeps painfully to herself.
