Be Kind, the story of “diversity”

Be Kind, the story of "diversity"

Be Kind, is a story about "diversity", a diversity that is seen in the eyes of a child. It is a journey of stories.

Filming of the film has now come to an end. Be Kind is the film by the director and actress Sabrina Paravicini and her son, Nino Monteleone.

Be Kind ... Diversity as an opportunity

A film that can be defined as kind, born also thanks to a fundraising campaign.

It tells about the diversity seen through the eyes of innocence; a journey through the stories of those who experience diversity as an opportunity and not as a limit.

Nino undisputed protagonist

Nino makes "Cicerone" along the way, he is 12 years old; at 2 and a half years, however, he was diagnosed with a form of childhood autism.

A child with Asperger's syndrome and the dream of being a director.

Sabrina and Nino together embark on a difficult path, made of fears and sacrifices but also of progress and satisfactions.

At 5, in just one year, thanks to the help of the therapists, Nino learns to read and write.

At 11, even, writes a short novel alone that dedicates to classmates and teachers as a gift of elementary end.

Be Kind is his way of describing his world, meeting and interviewing people who, like him, live in diversity: physics, psychics, ethnicity, religion, social status and gender.

Many micro trips that make up a great story; of outdated fears, of hope, of cures that have worked, of experimentations, of kindness and of happiness.
