BEYOND STAIRS is a movie in ten episodes in which the author highlights the prejudices that society has regarding disabled. For some, a disabled is a useless being; he or she should not go to school. For others, he or she has no right to work and therefore must beg in the streets. For others, a disabled person is a mystical being who could only bear disabled children and therefore, should not get married. In this jail-like universe, the disabled must struggle to prove that he or she is equal, and perhaps even superior, to other people. Born in a Christian family, Ouabo Esaie Legrand, also known as Professor Ouele was born on February 6, 1965 in Bangoua Hospital (West Cameroon). At nine months of age, he can walk and run. However, at 12 months, poliomyelitis paralyzes him and condemns him to crawl for many years.
Beauty - in both name and appearance - is a twenty-year-old Bangladeshi, back in England having disgraced her family by fleeing an abusive arranged marriage. Forced onto the jobseeker's treadmill and under extreme domestic pressure, she cracks and runs away. Her encounters with officialdom, fellow claimants, and strangers in the city streets, complicated by the restrictions and comfort of her language and culture, place her at the mercy of such unlikely helpers as Mark, a friendly, Staffordshire bull terrier-breeding exoffender, and Peter, a middle-class underachiever on the rebound from a bitter relationship. With determination and good humour, Beauty moves ever closer to making her choice between family duty and personal freedom. All the while, however, her brothers are searching for her across town. Can she make the choice herself, before she's forced to? A sharply rendered, compassionate and challenging portrait of a fragmented, multicultural urban England.
