A psychology student with paraplegia looks into prejudice around disability and sexuality, meeting people whose experiences challenge common stereotypes about desire, intimacy and love.

The film is a Greek documentary directed by Siamak Etemadi. At its centre is Aris, a psychology student who has paraplegia. Aris sets out to learn more about the prejudices linked to disability and sexuality. Questions of desire, intimacy and love bring him into contact with people whose experiences challenge common stereotypes. The documentary stays close to Aris and follows his personal path: his attempts to understand himself, to find acceptance and to seek closeness with others. It accompanies him through these encounters.
