When Billy Broke His Head and Other Tales of Wonder(1994)

A foundational, irreverent road movie through disability culture. After a traffic accident left journalist Billy Golfus brain-injured and hemiplegic, he picked up a camera and traveled the country meeting other disabled people and documenting the anger and strength behind the disability rights movement. No inspiration, no cure arc, just biting first-person wit. A Kartemquin Films production, Emmy-nominated, and decades ahead of its time.
