Vive la baleine
Synopsis
Whales were originally an essential means of survival for a certain section of humanity. Then industrialisation came along, and with it big investors. Whale hunting subsequently became a money-making enterprise: the slaughter could commence. Such is the tale told in this simple and unembellished documentary.

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.
