The documentary AUTISM AS A GIFT is a sensitive testimony from the
parents of a nine-year-old autistic boy Ángel. They look at their
son's "disability" or "peculiarity" from a different perspective than
most of the society: to them it is a gift. Opportunity for
self-knowledge and self-education. |

An observer, who clears his mind to work with time and space. He not
only reaches certain pixilation ecstasy, but also, if he joins "the

Czech landscape. |

The FISDN present film series focused on different countries and regions. This section intends to discover and explore different spaces and cultures with the aim to understand the specific regional, political and social circumstances, do reconstruct the emotional and intellectual spécificities of a special region or country. In this critical work we belief it's essencial to prefer films which rufuse, in its form and expression, the retake of sterotype ways of reality restituition, as an act of resistance in the actual period of "globalisation", which inclins to impose one dominating model of culture and habitutes.
