Code Name: Butterflies tells the powerful story of the Mirabal sisters of the Dominican Republic who in the 1950s, under the code name 'Butterflies', created a secret resistance movement against Dictator Rafael Trujillo. When the tyrant had the women assassinated, a country rose up against Trujillo and he was killed. The courage of these women, simple wives and mothers who helped bring freedom and democracy to their country is legendary.
