S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Brian walks to school about one mile from his home in rural Connecticut. He set up for school as usual by 6am hoping to arrive in an hour's time. Brian had walked for about 30 minutes when without warning, heavy rain began to fall. Within minutes, Brian was soaked to the skin. On reaching the railing intersection, he noticed that the railway bridge has given way during the heavy downpour. As he was about crossing, Brian sees the train coming. It took his mind seconds to register that this means a ghastly accident for the oncoming train. Without a second hesitation, Brian stood on the track, ignoring the warning whistles and started waving his shirts. Providence was on his side because the captain of the train sited him from a good distance and started applying the brake. Just a few metres from where he stood, the train halted and the accident was prevented. Brian was rewarded for his bravery .

Answer:

1. He has tetraamelia syndrome which causes his body to have no limbs. In this way, his body has a "tubular" appearance like that of a larp.

2. When he decided to leave the circus of horrors where he performed and hide in a Butterfly Circus truck.

3. Mr. Mendez's conversation about how Will (the man who looks like a caterpillar) can do more about being a freak and the moment when he realized he could swim.

4. He started to present himself as a circus attraction, because of his skills and talents and not because of his syndrome and appearance

5. At the beginning Will is a sad and melancholy man, because of everything that happens and how he is treated in the horror show he participates in. However, when he decides to join Butterfly Circus, he finds himself in an environment where he is treated well and encouraged to be a better person. This makes him change the way he sees himself, the way he behaves and his mood, being a happy person.

Explanation:

Butterfly Circus is an independent short film, set during the Great Depression. In this story we are introduced to Will, who has no arms or legs and performs at the city's horror show. However, this is an environment that makes Will sad, melancholy and hopeless, because he is very badly treated and does not see himself as someone who can do anything but present himself as a freak.

Until he decides to join Butterfly Circus, a circus where people are encouraged to discover their talents and live happily, satisfied with themselves. That's what Will does.
