Dear subscribers,
I open this newsletter with a series that I have been waiting for for more than four decades: a series that would reflect the daily life of my life with a disability, its joys and its anxieties.
With the exception of the short series
Vestiaires
de France Télévisions, disability has remained the blind spot of diversity on TV.
There have been Stéphanie Pillonca's TV movies, but their perpetual search for the happy ending has always made me uncomfortable.
A lack of representation that dynamites the drama of TF1 on the ups and downs of students from the Toulouse-Lautrec high school in Vaucresson.
In this series, there is a bite, a dark humor, a frontality that reminds me of my stays in a rehabilitation center.
Despite its small flaws,
Lycée Toulouse-Lautrec
offers a salutary vision of disability that in no way undermines the thirst for life and experiences.
A necessary development at a time when still too many people consider that a disability sounds the death knell of all possibilities.
I would have loved...
