Monica contracted polio at age seven, during one of the national epidemics in 1957. Although the disease confined her to a wheelchair, with great difficulty moving her four limbs, Monica has worked as a private English teacher and, more importantly, has been the mother of a daughter who is now 15. After the birth of her daughter, Monica felt the need and the impulse to make a documentary about her "colleagues," mothers in similar situations, a task she undertook with the help of her documentary filmmaker husband.
