A terminally ill little boy helps an emotionally shuttered man reembrace life in the tender Canadian drama THE BLUE BUTTERFLY. Based on a true story, the film stars William Hurt as curmudgeonly entomologist Alan Osborne, who reluctantly agrees to help a 10-year-old, wheelchair-bound cancer patient, Pete Carlton (Marc Donato), catch a beautiful but elusive species of butterfly known as the Blue Morpho. Accompanied by Pete's mother, Teresa (Pascale Bussieres), the would-be collectors soon find themselves travelling to the lush rainforests of Costa Rica, where the dramatic jungle landscapes transform their near-mythic quest into a transformative journey of hope, magic, and redemption.
