Synopsis
A documentary about love, friendship and sexuality of the disabled from Rafał Skalski, who made his directing debut with "52 Percent". Disability remains a taboo in our society. Many people avoid interactions with the disabled as they are not sure how to behave in their company. In reality, however, the differently-abled share the same dreams, desires, needs and aspirations like us.
Characters portrayed in Rafał Skalski’s documentary are people who despite their limitations celebrate life at its best. Instead of avoiding daily problems, they find courage to challenge them. All characters have someone. Wheelchair-bound Krzyś plans his life with differently-abled Ola, whereas sight-impaired Grzegorz and disabled Ania cannot image their life spent apart. „He is my legs and I am his eyes,” says Ania. Five-year old Wiktoria is the fruit of love of the mobility-challenged Ela and her fully-abled husband, Rafał. Characters fail to feel different or inferior. They openly invite the audience to explore the intimate world of their male-female relationships. As they admit themselves, their sexuality is nothing extraordinary but they do realise that this aspect of their life appears to be most exciting.
