The Guy on the River Bank
Synopsis
An encounter. On a winter's night, on a bridge in Paris, a young man wants to end his life as quickly as possible, but a young woman prevents him from doing so. In the distance, the glimmer of Parisian life shines on the passing boats. On the banks of the Seine, in the light of streetlamps, they talk, she tries to reassure him, they slowly win each other over.

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.
