THE SLEEPING SAINT dir. Laura Samani
Giacomina is twelve, and has been chosen as guardian of Saint Achillea's statue for the annual procession. But then her best friend, Silene, is found in a state of paralysis, of a seeming death: her body is still warm. While the village is hailing it as a miracle, Giacomina is the only one wondering whether everything is really lost.
AURORE dir. Mael le Mée
In a village in the French countryside, young Aurore starts to notice strange changes in her body. It's almost as if she has super powers bestowed upon her by the nature that flourishes around her.

Grand Tour is the portrait of a 16-year old girl who travels to an island for a nocturnal meeting with the first love of her life, until the next morning when she faces the naked reality of their love.
MISS CHAZELLES dir. Thomas Vernay
On a hot summer's day in the secluded village of Chazelles-sur-Lyon, we follow beauty pageant rivals Clara and Marie.

Eleven-year-old Jade has only one thing on her mind: to take part in the Grand Prix des Kaolins, the summer quarry motocross championship. The fact she is wheelchair-bound is not going to hold her back.
