Roy Dean was born with severe Down’s syndrome to an indifferent mother. When he is four, he suffers a trauma and is separated from his mother and confined to a wheelchair in an institution. At 16, without a thought to the consequences, Roy Dean slowly rises from his wheelchair and walks away from the only world he really knows. This is the story of the evolution of Roy Dean, and how he learns the joy of dumpsters, friendship, independence, and the ability to face his anger and fears. Roy Dean wanders the streets of the city, slowly emerging from its shadows to find the sunlight and the power of self-respect.
