Synopsis
Hiroshima. On the morning August 6, 1945, a blinding light invaded the coasts of the floating world. A man remembers. The shock, the violent explosion. Bodies that stretch in pain, dreams of the past in the present, visions of a future in the past. The child he was before. Before the light thundered. Before the world was disturbed.

Butterfly, by Florence Miailhe
A man swims in the sea. This brings back memories. They are all connected to water, from his early childhood to his adult life. This will be the story of his last swim.
