Two longtime companions who live together against all the odds are the subject of this deeply engaging portrait. Kathy has cerebral palsy and speaks through an electronically generated voice, and her friend and caregiver, Diana, has Down’s syndrome and works to heal from her abusive childhood. Refusing to live in the institutions that would claim to serve them, Diana and Kathy fight tenaciously not only for their own independence but for the rights of all people with disabilities. NK
