Synopsis
April 21st, 2002. In the evening of the first tour of the presidential elections. A point of an irreparable break. One of these rare moments when we really live as History. And, regrettably, History in all its blackness. This evening was also, for some good friends, the moment chosen for a surprise party on the occasion of my birthday. The cake had a bitter taste.

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.
