The disabled film director Niko von Glasow declares himself an enemy of sport and considers the Paralympic Games a total incongruity; he cannot understand how someone can set a goal like this, when the daily life of people with disabilities is already a daily challenge more than enough.
With these prejudices, von Glasow delves into the lives of 4 athletes and a volleyball team who compete in the London 2012 Paralympic Games. With them he talks about sport, but also about life and fears.
Increasingly drawn to this world, Niko attends the Paralympic Games in London and travels to the ancient city of Olympia, where it all began, and where boccia, a Paralympic sport, is banned.
