Inspire ME

Determined to become the most inspirational disabled person ever, Madeleine Stewart embarks on a journey to become a Paralympian.

Inspire ME is a short documentary film examining the concept of "inspiration porn" — the way disabled people are often objectified for the benefit of non-disabled people.
