Synopsis
The film-maker restores an unusual image of the social life in the Icelandic capital through a rare place - an open-air swimming pool - and a cinematic device which reveals as much from the video installation, as the photography, as the documentary and also as from the security camera.

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.
🦋 'Butterfly' won the Crystal Bear Young People's Jury at the Berlinale and was selected for the Official Competition at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival, where it received the André Martin Prize.
