Christopher Reeve portrayed the Man of Steel in four Superman films and played dozens of other roles that displayed his talent and range as an actor, before being injured in a near-fatal horse-riding accident in 1995 that left him paralyzed from the neck down. After becoming a quadriplegic, he became a charismatic leader and activist in the quest to find a cure for spinal cord injuries, as well as a passionate advocate for disability rights and care.
This documentary transcends the typical Hollywood retrospective by focusing on the profound resilience found after a life-altering accident. Through intimate family footage, it reveals how a legendary icon reclaimed his agency and voice when his physical world suddenly shrank.
