Butterflies I Have Known

University professor Matthew Richter hates complications. Planning his every day down to the second leaves no opportunity for a social life, which he doesn't feel the need for anyway.

Jian Wei helps run his family's business. The only thing he enjoys more than tormenting his parents and siblings with endless pranks is plotting his next trick on a certain uptight customer.

Though so different, chance inexplicably draws them both to a World War II photography exhibit, and the aging photographer Milton Glass.

Milton shares the story of two soldiers brutally cut down on the battlefield-which has haunted him for the better part of his life-and his suspicions that the soldiers shared a bond they never fully realized.

Now, in the twilight of his life, Milton can't help but wonder if Matthew and Jian share a potential bond of their own. Could they possibly be the same men from so long ago, returned for a second chance at being together? Milton can hope.
