“T11 Incomplete” is a medical term, which refers to a paraplegic patient whose spine is severed but who still has some feeling in their legs.
It is also the title of a groundbreaking new film in which two broken people, Kate Murphy (Karen Sillas) and Laura (Kristen Renton), find love through a caregiver-patient relationship.
