Twenty years after its release, “Red like the sky” is available in a new format for streaming on MYmovies ONE: a film that combines emotion, imagination, and awareness, which over time has become a true benchmark in the portrayal of visual impairment, especially for younger generations.
The film retains its power intact: a delicate and rhetoric-free story about visual impairment, set in the 1970s, when integration was still a distant goal. Through authentic characters and performances by real blind children, the film sensitively conveys the nuances of sight loss, pain, and denial, but also the possibility of transforming a limitation into a new form of expression.
A work that has helped to advance the way disability is portrayed and which, over the years, has won over younger audiences in particular. In 2007, the film won the David di Donatello Giovani Award.
