Vremennyje trudnosti

Sascha is born with polio, but his father does not see this as a reason to treat him any differently. His raising is actually willingly stricter, willingly harder. Despite his paralysis, Sascha has to do difficult homework, keep up with healthy kids and fight for everything. In his father’s eyes that’s the only way he will ever be able to stand on his own two feet. He does. But even years later, Sascha has not fully come to terms with the severity and degradation of his childhood. He’s meanwhile a successful business coach known for his radical methods, but has had no contact with his father in ages. But when an opportunity for a reunion presents itself, he jumps at it.
