An insight into mechanisms of  human self-destruction. Marcin Różalski (35) a veteran of martial arts is a modern gladiator. His life is a continuous fight tinted with conscious and consequent destruction of his body and health. ‘Life of a Butterfly’ is a story about the price one pays for an adamant and uncompromising aspiration to reach one's aim. It is a tale of fear, hatred, constant escape as well as unconditional love to another person.
