Is the 2011 Dutch Drama &#8216;Black Butterflies&#8217; Available on Netflix? Where Can You Stream It?

Netflix is serving as a game changer when it comes to giving voice to unheard
stories from various parts of the world. The OTT Mogul is currently under fire
for its first-ever NC-17-rated documentary revolving around the yesteryear
starlet Marilyn Monroe. 2022 is the year in which art from women who were
considered untraditional and a threat to society at that point are being
acknowledged. Cinematic pieces such as Dickinson starring Hailee Steinfeld,
Emily starring Emma Mackey and many more are proof of this fact. A hidden gem in
what can now be considered a genre is the 2011 Dutch drama Black Butterflies.
But is Black Butterflies available on Netflix?


WHAT IS BLACK BUTTERFLIES ABOUT?

Released in 2011, Black Butterflies is a drama flick many considered being ahead
of its time, akin to the writer that the series is about. Although it is a Dutch
drama, the series is entirely in English. Moreover, the movie is directed by
Paula van der Oest. Her movie Zus and Zo was nominated at the Academy Awards in
the Best Foreign movie category. Therefore, it doesn’t come as a shock that
Black Butterflies is also a masterpiece.

The movie is a biographical take on the life of Ingrid Jonker. If being an
underrated starlet is a thing, then Ingrid Jonker deserves the crown.
Furthermore, she was a South African poet who wrote her poetries in Afrikaans.
At a time when women were mostly taught to dress pretty and be quiet, Ingrid
used her poetry to challenge the government.

The drama is a beautiful portrayal of Ingrid Jonker’s life. And how she begins
to lose her light after witnessing tragedies such as the Sharpeville massacre
and the implementation of more brutal laws. Her turbulent relationship with her
father due to her beliefs is also explored.


IS BLACK BUTTERFLIES AVAILABLE ON NETFLIX?

Ingrid Jonker is often remembered as the Marilyn Monroe of the poetry world.
Given this fact, it is unlikely that Netflix will not have a movie depicting her
life. Additionally, Black Butterflies is produced by IDTV Film and Cool Beans.

Starring the beautiful actress Nicolas Duavachelle, Black Butterflies is
unfortunately not streaming on Netflix. The streaming giant does have a series
by the same name but it is not to be confused with Ingrid Jonker’s biography.

Meet Aliza Siddiqui, a Hollywood News reporter at Netflix Junkie. Her love affair with Hollywood began with Anne Hathaway and The Princess Diaries, but it was the thrilling climax of Don’t Look Up that cemented her infatuation with the industry and its filmmaking. Aliza's journey into entertainment reporting began with her time at Otakukart, where she wrote over a thousand articles. Her writing style is cheeky and engaging, as seen in her report "Somewhat Alarmed," where she narrates Jimmy Kimmel's hilarious story of how Jason Bateman tricked him into gecko-sitting. Aliza's ultimate dream is to study and critique films that capture her imagination and the attention of movie-goers worldwide. When she is not busy binge-watching Sacha Baron Cohen movies and The Office, she loves to curl up with a weathered copy of a Khaled Hosseini or Indu Sundaresan book.
