This 8 minute audio documentary is about people with special needs. It focuses on the journey of a young woman, Omneya El Yamany, who had an accident and is now living in a wheelchair.

This project was produced by Hanin Qandil and Nourane Selim for the Audio Production course at The American University in Cairo, taught by Professor Kim Fox in Spring 2018.
