Leonard Cheshire - "How is your work ethic?" (2019) :80 (UK)

In this film for Leonard Cheshire things aren't quite what they seem at first glance. A man is at a job interview and is asked about his work ethic. Fidgeting with his hands, we see a scar and then we are thrust back into his past to the accident that changed his life. The hospital bed. The recovery. The hard work. All the minutes and miles that took him to this interview. How is his work ethic? This man works very very hard.

This story is exceptionally well told, and shows us that for disabled people the hard work never ends. It’s time for society to work harder for them.
