Life as a wheelchair user

24 min

Available until 06/05/2025

Six wheelchair users discuss their very personal journeys, and while some see their wheelchair as a means to making the most of life with their physical disability, others still find it hard to come to terms with their situation. All have had to challenge stereotypes and clichés about people with disabilities in their daily lives.

This programme by French broadcaster France.tv Slash is part of the European Collection, a joint initiative from European public service media (ARD, ARTE, France Télévisions, SRG SSR, RTBF and ZDF), coordinated by ARTE.
