She addresses the often absurd and ignorant attitudes of strangers, friends, and family.\n\nRousso also examines her own prejudice toward her disabled body, and portrays the healing effects of intimacy and creativity, as well as her involvement with the disability rights community. She intimately reveals herself with honesty and humor and me.
