The Butterfly

Last night I watched a film named The Butterfly (2003 by Philippe Muyl). It was about the relations between an 8 year old girl and his elderly neighbor.

The old man was a butterfly collector and girl's questions about the butterflies started their friendship. Man was after a rare kind of butterflies which is called Isabella and takes a trip to the mountains for finding it. This kind of insects has just a life time of 3 nights and 3 days and old man was exactly looking for a needle in a haystack. The incidents during this trip were very similar to the story of The Little Prince and it was showing the schedules of taming old man by the girl.

After a long time, last night I really enjoyed of watching a film and felt a complete tranquility. Hope u have seen it too ;)

Name of the girl was Elsa. In an episode she said: when they were naming me they forgot to put letter i in my name so instead of Elisa which is the short format of Elisabeth (name of The Queen) ,I become Elsa; but after a while she completed her saying by this sentence: it's good not to be the short format of somebody. It's nice to be yourself.
