Rückwärts laufen kann ich auch

Directed by Karl Heinz Lotz

With Peggy Langner, Roland Kuchenbuch, Vera Irrgang, Claudia Geisler-Bading and Gudrun Okras

Seven-year-old Kati is glad that despite her spastic disability she is allowed to attend a normal school. Her parents made that possible. In her first year there, she is supposed to prove that she can get along at the school and she does her utmost to keep up with her classmates. Her disability, however, is greeted with constant mockery and disrespect. Even her teachers have a hard time treating her equally. When Kati fails math, she has to attend a special school. Katie is devastated but her friends help her to cope with the new situation.
