Rosso come il cielo (2006) Cristiano Bortone

The film is inspired by the true story of Mirco Mencacci, one of the most gifted Italian sound editors working today, who happens to be blind. It opens in 1971, with Mirco's life-changing accident as a 10-year-old that causes him to lose his sight. The law at the time forced his parents to send him away to a school for the blind. Mirco wasn’t willing to accept that his disability would limit him to a future of physical labour. When assigned a geography project, instead of handing in a finished piece in Braille, Micro puts together an audio compilation tape. Despite being met with great admiration from his peers, the headmaster of his school was far less approving of his unorthodox presentation.
