Synopsis
Today, in Lebanon, power cuts are not an event, they are a new state. Even the national museum is often deprived of electricity. But visitors want to see, despite everything. Armed with their phones, they come to visit the traces of past civilisations as their world crumbles. And so, in the darkness, shadows appear and things organise themselves differently, strangely…

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.
