Ugandan Alex loses both his legs and dignity while facing a society that stigmatizes disability and offers little support. Through resilience, he turns his personal tragedy into a mission for justice. His journey from outcast to advocate fuels a groundbreaking movement, empowering fellow amputees and their communities, restoring mobility and dignity and fighting for disability rights in East Africa.
