Commentary on the film: I Am Dyslexic
A mountain of books!
A very beautiful metaphor for dyslexia and the difficulties that dyslexic children must overcome.
The directors of the short film, themselves dyslexic, created the film in the hope of instilling self-confidence in every child experiencing learning difficulties. A film to show children that they are not alone, an invitation to develop their talents and strengthen their self-esteem, which is often mistreated at school.
Dyslexia, a specific reading learning disorder, linked to a particular difficulty in identifying letters or words, affects 8 to 12% of students.
