“It had never happened to us before that we couldn't go to the cinema. And instead on the day of the Epiphany we were in fact denied to see Cortellesi's film at the UCI Cinema in East Rome. Because the disabled seat was available, but the one next to it reserved for the companion was occupied”.
The misadventure is recounted by Davide Faraone, president of the Italian Autism Foundation and senator of Italia Viva, who publishes the entire story on “.
“He was advised to choose another film”
Faraone continues: “Mother Ilaria decided to report what happened, because Daniele deserves a social life that is as close as possible to that of everyone else. All this should never have happened, instead, not only did it happen but Daniele was also advised to go and see another film, trampling on and denying a right. An unscrupulousness that is worse than ostentatious ignorance. A hug to Daniele and his mother”.
