23 year old Przemek has been paralyzed since birth. He also cannot speak. One day a miracle happenes. After 16 years, his enormous effort succeeds, allowing him to open his mind to others. Przemek quickly learns Blissymbolics, which enables to represent virtually any idea or concept by combining and recombining a relatively small set of basic symbols. He is also a member of a scouting team. His poem Love was printed in the press and won awards at handicapped youth festivals.
