Documentary from filmmakers Henry Alex Rubin and Dana Adam Shapiro, following the quadriplegic men who play the sport of 'quad rugby'. Driven and determined to overcome the limitations of their disabilities, the men who play the sport professionally can risk serious injuries in the tough, close-contact game. In the run up to the 2004 Paralympics in Athens, Team USA and Team Canada begin to square off for the showdown in the quad rugby final, as the filmmakers subvert clichés and stereotypes of what it means to be disabled, and what it means to want to win.
When fifteen-year-old Henry Every washes up on shore, the only clues to his shocking death are those he leaves behind in a secret ledger that someone mysteriously leaves on his parents' doorstep. Crammed full of his darkly comic confessions, the pages detail Henry's myriad misadventures on his wayward quest for self-betterment: acts of petty crime with his best friend, Jorden, a romantic obsession with the elusive Benna, and a prickly relationship with a lethal jellyfish. Quietly wise and laugh-out-loud funny, The Every Boy proves there's hope in the darkest places -- you just have to know where to look.
It all began as a self-help journey in the purest sense. A serial
monogamist for more than two decades, Shapiro wanted to know why
the honeymoon phase of his relationships never lasted until the
actual honeymoon. Believing that you learn more from failure than
from success, he spent the next three years criss-crossing the
country with a tape recorder, interviewing hundreds of divorced
people, hoping to become so fluent in the errors of Eros that he
would be able to avoid them in his own love life--and one day be a
better husband.
