L'Amour Handicapé plot

“L'Amour Handicapé” is the open story of four young disabled people, all with a severe congenital disability, about their sexual difficulties and experiences. We see them each in turn in the holiday camp where they have gathered and in their daily environment. For example, there is Thérèse, who is missing arms and legs and dances in her husband's arms. There is also Jules, who is confined to a wheelchair as a result of cerebral palsy. He would, however, love to have a wife and children so that he could at least feel responsible for someone. Christophe, who will never be able to satisfy his sexual desires, talks about his desire to die. The theme of disabled people in relation to their sexuality is explored in depth in this documentary.
