Glover and co-director David Brothers give the film an aesthetic value that is somewhere between David Lynch and Michael Findlay in terms of camera, art direction and style, but the film is really a one man show for Stewart, who lived with the same handicap his on-screen alter-ego lives with.

The film opens with Steven on the floor of the institution he has been confined to because of the cerebral palsy he has suffered from since birth.
