Plot
Following a serious sports accident in a swimming pool, Ben, now an incomplete quadriplegic, arrives in a rehabilitation center. He meets other handicapped people (tetraplegics, paraplegics, traumatized crania), all victims of accidents, as well as a handicapped since his early childhood. Between impotence, despair and resignation, in the daily struggle to learn to move a finger or to hold a fork, some slowly find a little mobility while others receive the verdict of the handicap for life. Despite everything, hope and friendship help them endure their difficulties.

gollark: What?
gollark: Lots of things could destroy the earth, yes. Just not nuclear war.
gollark: Nuclear war is not capable of destroying the Earth, as it's quite big. A 999-magnitude earthquake would probably, as it is a log scale.
gollark: More properly known as a geometer, actually.
