Davenport decided to travel with a cameraperson throughout Europe, documenting the lives of Europeans with disabilities and exploring the social impact of inaccessibility. This film introduces viewers to three Europeans with disabilities, all of which live completely different lives from one another. Along with Davenport's own difficulties traveling throughout Europe, these three people provide the anecdotes that put disability in a light that is rarely shone on them in the media and shows the undeniable connection between disability and the human condition.
