The issue is meaningful because it addresses the attitudes of the majority of Kenyans towards those with disabilities. More specifically it addresses the beliefs and way of thinking that breeds intolerance which drastically impacts the livelihood of a large population of people, unable to fight for themselves. Those suffering from disabilities are considered "curses by God" and are abandoned, marginalized, and sometimes even killed at birth because of their disabilities. This film will play a crucial part in the ongoing efforts of creating awareness about this issue, inspiring more people to act alongside those seeking to stop it. The belief-bred intolerance towards the disabled can no longer be tolerated.
