Being Ola
Ola is just turning 30. He’s a dedicated, cheerful and honest guy who’s fairly happy with his life. And there is one more thing: Ola was born with a mild intellectual disability. He speaks openly, curious about his own condition, all the while wondering if other people see him mainly as a person with a diagnosis. Why can’t he just be Ola? In search of freedom and independence, he sets out on a courageous path to break through barriers and to become more self-reliant.
