This frame pays homage to Steve McQueen’s 1973 interpretation of Henri “Papillon” Charrière, a lifer determined to escape from the penal colony of Cayenne. He embodies the will to break one’s own chains and celebrates the desire to achieve the impossible, as no one ever returns from the terrible gaols of French Guiana.
