| | Notes | A woman lives with her sister who has learning difficulties. She works as physiotherapist in hospital. The sister works in a factory with other disabled people making roller blades. The physiotherapist takes art classes (she's sleeping with the art teacher). Their mother is an alcoholic and neglects the sister with learning difficulties calling her retarded, like a six year old. Then the sister with l.d. buys a lottery ticket and wins the chance to play Spin the Wheel on TV. Good performances put this film a touch above the ordinary.
