Butterfly

The digital monstrous feminine.

FilmDrops says

A man swims in the sea. As he moves through the water, memories come back to him from the bright beaches of the Indian Ocean to the grey of the concentration camps.

In this moving animated short, Florence Miailhe tells the extraordinary story of Alfred Nakache, the "swimmer from Auschwitz".
