Bolboreta, Mariposa, Papallona Series: Spanish Cinema Now Director: Pablo Garcia, Country: Spain, Release: 2006, Runtime: 87 Victor and Laura, a film director and his assistant, travel to a small seaside town on the Galician coast. Their intention is to record its beauty––not only the landscape and people but also a more evanescent beauty embedded in small everyday actions, gestures and things encountered. But they just cannot seem to fulfill their ambitious goal of “catching life” with the camera. They decide to hand over their equipment and footage to the local children who, they hope, could better see, relate to and capture this enchanting atmosphere. What results is a documentation of the everyday life and beauty of the town as seen from the playful, inquisitive perspective of the children, and a film that moves back and forth between fiction and documentary using the fragile beauty of a butterfly—beauty that is fleeting, always out of grasp—as the driving metaphor.
