So the Russians were collecting butterflies from space and the crash released them...?

Yes, that’s exactly what happened. We’ve been invaded by space butterflies.
The deadliest butterflies of all.

Coming this summer to a theater near you: Zarya, a magical film of adventure in the Russian countryside. Produced by Johnny Depp and Tim Burton, directed by Guiellmo del Toro.
