NotesI cannot reiterate too often that if you're looking for serious and in depth treatment of disability then look out for British TV drama. After a motorcycle accident and severe head injuries a man has the mental and emotional age of a five year old. His wife faces the adjustment to this and the film concentrates on the everyday implications of his condition. When the support of his friends drifts away she considers whether or not she can go on.
