Not a Hero
Yam doesn’t like when people tell him no. No, you can’t act on stage, no, you can’t fly with your family, no, you can’t go out with your friends for a beer. Especially not if the reason is his wheelchair. But when they tell him he can’t be drafted into the army, he sets out on the battle of his life. Not a Hero is a hand-in-hand journey with a disability.
