"My Butterfly"

“My Butterfly” is a half hour film, performed like an opera, about a man caught on the horns of a dilemma.  He is unable to understand the tensions between pleasure, intense though it is, and human life-values, also pleasurable, but with true responsibilities attached. It is also about the needs of the strong, and the strengths of the needy.

Jack, a handsome young man meets Maria, a beautiful writer, and the two develop a relationship that parallels the intensity of the accompanying sound track of arias, mainly sung by Maria Callas. The situation is complicated when their relationship is challenged by a highly intense, powerful, and stunning young woman Eve, who appears on the scene. The film is set on the picturesque North Shore of Long Island and the story unfolds during the 1950s.

The movie is not intended for young children.
