Jacob’s second year at school is coming to an end.<br />
In class, they learn about the short life of butterflies.<br />
Jacob wants to make a butterfly, whose wing markings<br />
resemble the big eyes of his severely disabled<br />
sister Pearl.<br />
The big brother knows that he must soon say<br />
good-bye to his sister, who is spending more and<br />
more time in the hospital. With his grandma, Jacob<br />
explores his most difficult thoughts, when his<br />
parents are too tired to talk. Their joint walks in<br />
nature are a consolation, even after Pearl’s life has<br />
ended.<br />
