Watch the Spider
T01908035159
Mike is a man who enjoys chatting up women and having sex. Then he breaks his back.
Watch the Spider is a psychological and emotional journey of a man coping with a spinal injury that leaves him paralysed, incontinent and impotent from one day to the next.
Watch the Spider is a poignant yet gently funny piece about what it means to be an individual, a man and a disabled person in the 21st century from the point of view of a man whose acquired disability has profoundly changed his attitude to life, to his identity as a man and to other disabled people.
