Discapacidad, inclusión y autorrealización: un itinerario educativo audiovisual

Abstract

This contribution aims to propose an educational path based on the vision and problematization of specific audiovisual narrations, in support of teachers’ and educators’ work in high schools. The ultimate goal is to approach the person with disability through a new awareness. As some successful television series and memorable movie works show, the person with disabilities is a living symbol of a new opportunity for the being-in-the-world of each of us. Often modelled on real characters, the protagonists with disabilities show the way to a new sense of “feeling”. They enable an intimate human contact with the Self and with the Other: a new nourishment for the person, beyond every “motor efficiency”.
