On the way to an appointment, Oliver — a successful portfolio manager — gets into a devastating crash on the highway. He wakes up from the tragedy as a paraplegic — forced to undergo months of rehab to prepare for life in a wheelchair. As he attempts to escape his ‘handicap prison’ with bad WiFi, he stumbles upon a shared apartment for the disabled called the Goldfish Group.
