Fiadda piemonte supports the project Torino + cultura accessibile (more accessible culture)
Fiadda Piemonte supports the project Torino + Cultura Accessibile (more accessible culture), created & coordinated by Carlo Molo Foundation.
The project aims to assure a real access to culture & events for people with
sensory disabilities, in particular to
theater and film. The project promotes a series of initiatives
aiming to promote the use of culture as a means of social inclusion & active citizenship by improving the quality of life.
FIADDA Piemonte collaborates and promotes two events of direct inclusion through the use of technology in the cinema & theater.

MovieReading
is an app for iOS & Android smartphones/tablets available since last year, which allows deaf people
to read the subtitles, & blind people to listen to the audio
description of the film at the cinema. Until
now, people with sensory disabilities (more than 3 million in Italy
alone) were excluded from the cinema, & were "relegated" to old movies at impossible hours.
MovieReading is a solution that does not require adjustments or
technical infrastructures as both the subtitles & the audio
descriptions are available directly on the individual user's device.
The theater & the cinema: the simultaneous subtitles.
The play "The Lovers" by Goldoni is inserted into the normal
programming of the 2013-2014 season of the Teatro Stabile Torino, as well as the movie "La mossa del pinguino".

While working for a future where cultural stakeholders, policy makers & those who are responsible for the planning of arts & cultural events will be convinced to the importance of such initiatives, Fiadda Piemonte will continue to promote a real & concrete accessibility for all, considering it as one of the cornerstones for a community based on respect, dignity & reciprocity.
A special thanks to Carlo Molo Foundation, to all participants & individuals who made this initiative possible.
