2-10 December 2023 On Demand Screenings | Topic: Diversities

The theme of the screenings is the different perspectives of various disabled people on their lives. The script for a new TV series gives Zhenya ("Zheyna is writing the script") an opportunity to share his love for music and the dreams he had before his life-changing stroke. Having faced many difficulties, but never giving up, Farhad ("I Am Irani"), a well-known photographer in Iran with a rare genetic disorder, decides to leave his country. Watching the documentary "Ercan & Aysun" we see how congenital achondroplasia did not act as a deterrent condition in the family but also professional life of two actors who share their dreams and art in different cities of Turkey. Traveling with a specially made teddy bear
with an opening in his belly in "The Bear Necessity" we expect to see how it will change the life of a little boy with a rare gut condition. Observing the reality of three women in "Girl of the Moon" we come face to face with the different perspectives of the incurable genetic disease and the prohibition of exposure to the sun. Following an autobiographical journey in "Amemory" we learn what it's like to live only in the present while constantly forgetting and how difficult it is to accept this reality. In 'Léa Sous le Soleil' we trace a series of challenges faced by a woman with albinism in the Democratic Republic of Congo and finally in 'Grandma isn't sclerotic' we follow the journey of 4 women with multiple sclerosis after diagnosis.

 You can find the movie trailers on our YouTube channel "RODI FESTIVAL".
