Butterfly chase.

Nocturnal Butterflies is Servais' serene and melancholic homage to Belgian surrealist Paul Delvaux (1897-1994), whose architectural paintings serve as the basis for the mise-en-scène for the film, and whose opaquely gazed women represent the enigmatic, silent witnesses who guard the secrets of the eccentric artist's curious world of precisely rendered, hermetic construction.

"Concluding with a citation of French cinematic pioneer Gaston Velle’s 1904 film of the same name, Ginard’s darkly celebratory film presents an impressionist vision of rebirth and transformation" (sfcinemateque.org)

In a mysterious forest, a woman is slowly lured into a nostalgic daydream as she observes butterflies.

Il existe d'innombrables mondes miniatures, presque invisibles, sur notre planète. Et bien qu'elles soient le plus souvent ignorées, ces minuscules créatures sont l'un des piliers de notre vie quotidienne. Suivez l'histoire d'une minuscule chenille, de ses premiers pas à l'éclosion d'un magnifique papillon...

Oscar, a shy lifeguard, flees the wrath of his boss following the disaster caused by the water purification machine he has developed. In his haste, he accidentally grabs a gangster's car containing the plans for a super satellite. A wild chase ensues.

An old man is obsessed by the haunting memory of his beloved who has passed on. He chases and collects butterflies while life slowly passes him by. The butterfly symbolizes his past happiness. Its erratic flight mimics the tragic tale of passionate love as the story flits between past and present, dream and reality. Set to the music of Gluck, The Song-Catcher shows an old man tormented by his dreams and consumed by sadness until his final release into eternity. Reminiscent of the world of Edgar Allan Poe, Philippe Vaucher's charcoal drawings capture the mournful landscapes of a tormented soul. In this hauntingly beautiful animated film, life melds into death in a sensuous celebration of love eternal. A film without words.

A spectator, who is a puppet, applauds the magic tricks of the butterfly woman, with whom he is in love. Under the force of his applause, the strings holding him in place give way. Thus free, he runs to the butterfly woman in the hope of conquering her and freeing her from her fate.

Le papillon monarque symbolise la métamorphose personnelle, la liberté de changer, la continuité de l'existence et le cycle de la vie. Dans certaines cultures, il est également considéré comme l'âme des défunts.

In my bath, I am asking myself questions about how bridges hold, what love is all about... and the essence of human being is to not understand everything.

A visual musing on departures and returns, where the butterfly meets the biker.

Un poème musico-visuel filmé entre de nouvelles et anciennes villes industrielles comme à travers l'œil d'une caméra papillon.

Tsubomi is a savvy and horny school girl who works at a lingerie club, a gentlemen’s bar where scantily clad young women serve drinks to the patrons. She is useless at her job but is blackmailing her boss so she won’t get fired. One day she runs into a gorgeous young man who she takes to bed. She meets into a perverted talking cat with a butterfly on its forehead, who recruits her to be a magical soldier. She has to fight off a dominatrix elf woman called Beene, a minion of Regina Apis, a matriarch bent on chaos and forming her new Dynasty. Tsubomi is learning of her powers when she is rescued by an oddly familiar masked man, known only as Dandelion. The plot of this anime is completely farcical and parodies the magical girl genre and Sailor Moon in particular.

"Violence doesn't need a reason. It just happens." With the event of a love-marked burglary involving a young girl, the film deals with an exaggerated but everyday form of violence and violation, as well as a reality that is not far from ours. A cell phone that runs out of battery, a deep sexual desire but also the question that raises, really, how far is someone willing to go to satisfy it?

The film was made in the context of the 5th Panorama Film School of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki with the theme DEACTIVATION.

Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, le mime français Antoine Moreau est arrêté par la Gestapo parce que son amant a collaboré avec la résistance antinazie. Les unités SS veulent l'utiliser pour répéter une représentation théâtrale idyllique pour enfants, qui convaincrait l'inspection de la Croix-Rouge internationale du contentement et du bonheur de la vie dans le ghetto de Terezin.

D'abord réticent, Moreau apprend peu à peu la vraie nature du camp, notamment le sens des « transports » sur lesquels les gens partent. Avec un orchestre de classe mondiale (composé de juifs internés dans le camp) et une troupe d'enfants, Moreau met en scène un spectacle pour clore tous les spectacles.

Et là, Antoine inclut des informations pour les invités choqués sur la réalité : la sorcière de conte de fées jette des hordes d'enfants dans le four…

Ce spectacle, que le monde entier verra alors, sera une cruelle parabole des atrocités dont il a été témoin.

Ce village, n'est relié au reste du Vénézuela que par un bateau vétuste qui remonte l'Orénoque...

This is psychological drama by Tomasz Zygadlo begins as a straightforward story. Jan (Roman Wilhelmi) is the host of a nightly talk show in which he counsels people who call in with their problems.
