Synopsis: An accidental telepath tries to understand the world around him and to make sense of all the thoughts different people have. His mother makes and flies paper airplanes that seem to stay aloft forever, while his mother follows, singing and naked. The village children's songs and chants seem to be checklists for launching a spaceship.
