Very moving depiction of social disadvantages

I really appreciated the depiction in this film of the impact an arbitrary event or inheritance can have on one's life. The life of the antagonist of the story is quickly turned upside down because of an accident, and he moves from a position of popularity and privilege in his societal circle to a position of marginalization. I found this sudden shift depicted in the film, and its consequences for the boy's life, very touching. It sheds light on what other similarly disadvantaged minority groups must deal with. Recommended film.
