Description
This program documents a young paraplegic's personal triumph over adversity against the background of the changing face of China. Tian Tian was paralyzed from the neck down after she and her mother were attacked by thugs in the marketplace. Tian Tian's father worries about the girl's future, but the acquisition of a computer provides an unexpected boon. Tian Tian learns to type holding a chopstick in her mouth and ultimately becomes an expert in Flash animation, relocates to Beijing, and starts a thriving company. But success comes at a cost-her modern, independent lifestyle is at odds with old-style Chinese family values.
