Jazz infernal, by Will Niava (15 m 46 s, fiction)

Bisou Sauvage, by Bahij Jaroudi (2 m 50 s, animation)

A Wolf in the Suburbs, by Amélie Hardy (19 m, documentary)

Welcome to Mississauga where lawns are clipped, neighbors are watchful and no blade of grass dares misbehave. Except at Wolf Ruck’s place. His lawn grows wild, and so does the trouble.
