PLOT

The film explores the ‘Farfallino’ language, a coded versionof Italian used by children to secretly communicate between each other. In Italian, literally, farfallino means "language of butterflies", from the animal’s noun farfalla. The work starts from the proposition of a unintelligible communication capable of transpassing species through incomprehension. While employing mechanism of exclusion and inclusion, languages creates separatisms and possible alliances.
