The Story of the Saffron Butterfly
2022, German. Directed by Jan Haft.
Now threatened with extinction, the last populations have entrenched themselves in Romania, where the more traditional agriculture and the diversified landscapes give a glimpse of the nature of yesteryear in Central Europe. Like a road movie, filmmaker Jan Haft goes in search of the small daytime butterfly with golden reflections whose survival depends on the rich variety of its ecosystem.
