Synopsis
It is the summer and the heat is overwhelming. Even in this small isolated farm where Maria, around thirty, lives with David, her companion, and Charlie, their five-year-old son. Affected by a memory disorder, Maria fights against her disease and hides her state from Charlie. But David's departure for professional reasons pushes aside the family balance.

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.
