An incredible portrait of courage in the face of day-to-day adversity, where the smallest of daily activities that most would perform without a second thought become huge battles to be won - battles that must be fought over and over again.
With their straight-shooting style, the filmmakers have really captured the essence of life for Felix and have produced a thought-provoking, nuanced, compassionate portrait of his daily struggles and successes. Particularly noteworthy is the way in which the director manages to achieve the right balance between fly-on-the-wall factual coverage and sympathy for the subject, without ever making the audience feel manipulated in any way. Quite an achievement!
