Synopsis
Men and women in the 1930 or 1940. They could have been our grandparents. How to love without making eight children? How to reconcile catholic morality and conjugal love? Why is the pleasure guilty? Abbot Viollet, maybe, will know how to answer all his questions. An easy job.

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.
