Wiseman's compassionate gaze with his camera documents scenarios involving personal hygiene, movement and vocational training, life both in and out of the dormitories, and learning of more abstract concepts such as time, money, and self help, leading the viewer to think about issues surrounding independent living and equality for disabled and all people.DocumentaryPT2H6MTBC2026-01-11
