Synopsis
What remains of us at the dawn of our forgetfulness? A man and a woman face each other in a dreamlike setting. They can no longer communicate. They contemplate their phantoms, images from their past or their future, that prevent them from advancing. In the distance, a storm is closing in. To avoid being submerged, they must act, and perhaps accept their fragmentation.

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.
