After the film: DEBATE with CAROLINA RASPANTI

Dafne (Carolina Raspanti) is 35 years old, she loves her job and she has many friends and colleagues who love her dearly. She has Down syndrome and she lives with her parents, Luigi (Antonio Piovanelli) and Maria (Stefania Casini). Suddenly Maria dies and the family’s balance is shattered.
Dafne is not only forced to deal with the loss, but also to stand by Luigi, who has fallen into depression. Thanks to the affection of her loved ones, to her bravery and to her self-awareness, Dafne finds the strength to react and tries to shake her father up. Until something unexpected happens: they decide to leave together for a hike in the mountains to the town where Maria was born. Along the walk, trying to look ahead to the future, they will discover a lot about each other.
