Stranger Hero is an action serial featuring the world's first kung-fu super hero with Down's Syndrome. Aimed particularly at young people, we're hoping the film makes them think twice before dismissing disabled people as Mongs, Retards, Invalids, Spastics, idiots etc.

Is is 5 minutes long

It is kung-fu. A proper kick ass hero.

But thanks for watching.

The politics behind it is to subvert peoples expectations of what people with learning difficulies are like.

Yes, but it's a start. If it gets anough hits on Youtube it could begin to have a life of its own though!
