Synopsis
In Tijuana there is the border of work, factories, a free zone, women and men who dance and get intoxicated at the Estrella.
In Tijuana there is, on the other side of the border, the American Dream that acts like a magnet on thousands of migrants, candidates for exile, illegal immigrants who are turned back or deported.
In Tijuana there are dollars, all kinds of trafficking, sometimes a bullet through the head.
In Tijuana there is the border. Here it's called "The Line."

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.
