Pro-diversity advocates have succeeded in replacing the the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 with a motion that recognizes human diversity. This was done to ensure the law is inclusive of all possible variation in the human race, genetic or otherwise. Ash (Nyle DiMarco) and Tavi's celebration is short-lived as Ash considers that while the law has changed, and technology has made it easy for all sorts of people to interact, the needed cultural transformation has not happened. People and traits once deemed 'disabled' or 'undesirable' are still being systematically engineered for removal. A series of interactions through the film show that it is possible through love and the power of the human spirit for humanity to recognize and acknowledge the value of human diversity.
