At best, the disabled are expected to be beggars. Emmanuel Ofosu Yeboah was born with one deformed leg, which led his father to abandon his mother. Until her early death, she championed her son, enrolling him in school and taking him to various doctors searching for a cure. Her encouragement proved long lasting, as this documentary tells how Emmanuel became a successful amputee athlete. Today, he works to bring political and social change to Ghana's disabled. 521 8 MPAA Rating: Rated G. 538 DVD, Region 1, Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround, Dolby Digital 2.0 stereo. 546 In English with optional Spanish subtitles; closed- captioned. 600 10 Yeboah, Emmanuel Ofosu,|d1977- 650 0 Cycling. 650 0 Cycling|zGhana. 650 0 People with disabilities|zGhana. 650 0 Sports for people with disabilities|zGhana. 655 7 Documentary films.|2lcgft 655 7 Sports films.|2lcgft 655 7 Films for the hearing impaired.|2lcgft 700 1 Yeboah, Emmanuel Ofosu,|d1977- 700 1 Lax, Lisa. 700 1 Stern, Nancy,|d1964- 700 1 Massie, Elizabeth. 700 1 Winfrey, Oprah. 710 2 Lookalike Productions. 710 2 First Look Home Entertainment. 938 Baker and Taylor|bBTCP|nbe2006000942 994 90|bWHP
