Direction: Michael Brun

Produced for the NFB by Nimbus Films Ltd. for the Transportation Development Agency of Transport Canada.

This title is an acquisition.

Buses, planes, trains, taxis, and public buildings are geared to the needs of the average person, not for anyone physically handicapped. This film looks at the world of mobility through the eyes of the disabled--a man temporarily on crutches; a young woman in a wheelchair; and a victim of cerebral palsy. It points out the need for improved transportation facilities and changed attitudes in all aspects of public life.
