Butterfly



Cathal Black : 2014

Leonard Doyle, a lonely probation officer, estranged from his wife, is faced with the difficult task of writing a report on Teri, a young, hot-tempered graphic designer who has convictions for minor theft. A clash of personalities in their first meeting sets the tone for what's to come, and, over the course of their series of meetings, Leonard's need to help her brings about more conflict as Teri stubbornly rejects his methods and uses his personal failings to keep him at arm's length. As his patience runs out, Leonard drops his professional approach and makes one final attempt to break through to her. Teri's acceptance or rejection of his helping hand will see her released from the dark past she has lived with for years, or condemn her to continue in her downward spiral. Cathal Black's short screened at Galway Film Fleadh 2015.
