Synopsis
One day, on the telephone between Beirut and Paris, my mother tells me: Your fahter has serious money problems, he has no choice, he has to sell his school, the banks have no scruples. I hear the loss and feel unsteady.
I have always been the headmaster's daughter of the school La Colline Libanaise and I cannot imagine it any other way. I decide to go home.

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.
