Synopsis

Ekke is sick. He hasnā€™t been able to go outside for several weeks. Every day, Ekke sits in his bedroom and makes a little paper boat. Heā€™s good at folding the paper boats, though. His grandpa, who was a sailor, taught him how while he was still alive. ā€œAs soon as the snow and ice meltā€¦ As soon as spring arrivesā€¦ As soon as Iā€™m healthy again, Iā€™ll send these boats on their way. Down along the river,ā€ Ekke sighs wistfully as he sits down by the window.

The Paper Boat is a story about wishes, memories of people weā€™ve lost and hope.
