The boy on a quest in Paper Birds is short-sighted, but he has a passionate affinity for music. His mission is to find his way through darkness to rescue his sister from the shadows, using music to open portals into worlds that are otherwise invisible. Travelling with him, we are confronted with our own inner darkness and whatever unnerving mysteries may lie within. A story that reminds us of the power of music to stimulate inspiration, intuition and a multiplicity of emotions.
