Synopsis
A little boy, the name-less, lives outside of the world, in a place which he contributed to shape. He lives protected and locked there at the same time. One day, sounds and images coming from outside awaken his desire to see the world. He runs away, pursued by his abandoned creation and terrified by the unknown. He meets then a girl.

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.
