The camera focuses on a face marked by solitude. It maintains this gaze, getting closer to the distress of this homeless, lonely man. Eschewing pity or complacency, this documentary paints a humane and respectful portrait of this street person.

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.
