Synopsis
A man roams in the city while wondering about his choices and his commitment. A dancer and a guitarist unite to express their desires for freedom and emancipation. A young woman reads extracts of Angela Davis's book on the blues and her subversive power.
These ghostly characters pull us into a journey through space and time, confronting us with intimate and political questionings: find ones place, take her, build her, in the furrow of those who resisted in the past, for the invention of the next day.

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.
