Disability is portrayed negatively in the TV drama "The Street". In the first scene, a man with a disability is denied his job back by his old boss, and he is shown behind a mesh fence giving the impression that he is trapped by his disability. Throughout the film, the camera focuses heavily on his disability, showing that the filmmakers want the audience to notice it. As he walks down the busy street, many people stare at him, making him feel like it is hard to live a normal life. At the end, he returns to his old army recruitment office, implying that is where he got his severe facial injuries and disability.
