Synopsis
A vibrant forest with colourful plants, insects and animals. The most beautiful parts of the forest are removed, leaving it colourless and lifeless. We then find these elements in a factory where the colours are extracted into small pots and the wood is transformed into newsprint. A photo of the forest is printed on the paper. Finally, a fake forest is created from the piles of printed newspapers.

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.
