The Dogsitter (Now That I’m a Ghost)
Synopsis
Guy is a dogsitter. In the evening of a day where he has once again disappointed himself, on the edge of dropping off his last dog, he is stopped by bursts of voices. At the height of an argument, the dog's owners declare a minute of silence to solemnly consecrate their separation. Frozen, in spite of himself, in the kitchen of this couple, Guy's reminding the thread of his day (which is also the one of his life) and tries to read in it the sign of a destiny and a hope.

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.
