You have a few hours to watch the documentary on Netflix about Jean Maggi, the paralyzed athlete who climbed the Himalayas.

Viewers have just a few hours to enjoy one of Netflix 's most moving short documentaries. Still available in the streaming platform's catalog, this audiovisual piece tells the true story of Jean Maggi , an Argentine athlete who defied all odds after a life marked by polio .

Her journey of self-improvement is a direct testament to resilience, with a powerful message about disability and social exclusion. Over the course of 47 minutes , viewers follow Maggi on her journey along the highest route in the Himalayas , propelled by the strength of her arms and an adapted bicycle.

But this isn't a story built on a single challenge. The Infinite Limit , directed by Pablo Aulita and produced by Juan José Campanella ( The Secret in Their Eyes ), interweaves family archive footage and current testimonies to portray the falls, the physical pain, the insecurities, and the path leading up to that summit: from a childhood marked by bullying to the heart attack that changed his life at age 37.

The work has generated impact not only for the feat it depicts, but also for its ability to break down prejudices by foregrounding a story that goes beyond physical exertion. With a classic yet effective narrative style, it stands out for its ability to move without falling into melodrama .

Maggi's story is not only an example of sport and overcoming difficulties, but also a social critique of the way people with disabilities are rendered invisible . The piece, originally released in 2020 and still available until midnight this Monday, June 16 , has received positive reviews for its message and honest treatment.
