"There Are Others Worse Off than Us ...."

Dion, Yves, (film director.). Cloutier, Normand, (film producer.). National Film Board of Canada (Montreal), (film producer.).

Summary: This is a look at the daily life of a young couple. Both wife and husband suffer from cerebral palsy. Although every movement is made with effort, and every day is a struggle, they choose, instead of dependence on others, to marry, to have a child and to derive strength and courage from each other. By showing their problems, their needs and their hopes, this film reaches out for greater public understanding and acceptance of the physically disabled in our midst.
