Russia, 1972. Director Andrey Khrzhanovsky. 10min.

A city boy becomes entranced by a butterfly and the beguiling creature leads him away from his technological world into the mesmerising and untamed realm of nature. Evoking the butterfly as a timeless symbol of metamorphosis, this intricately crafted animation brings a touch of mysticism to depicting the boy’s physical and spiritual transformation.
