[Vanni Oddera and Riccardo Aldighieri get into a FIAT 500. Riccardo takes the wheel and drives along mountain roads.]
[00:11]
Vanni: Riccardo, ready to go?
[00:13]
Riccardo: Let’s go.
[00:14]
Vanni: How would you describe yourself in two words?
[00:16]
Riccardo: I’d describe myself as a trap disabled guy. You know, I like living a bit over the top, pushing the limits, sometimes even showing off.
[00:24]
Vanni: How long have you been living with your disability?
[00:28]
Riccardo: I was born with this disability. It’s cerebral palsy, which doesn’t allow me to walk independently due to a brain injury affecting the motor area.
[00:39]
Vanni: What’s your relationship with driving?
[00:41]
Riccardo: For me, being able to travel long distances completely on my own, safely, and without effort—Vanni, that’s like walking independently for me.
[00:51]
Vanni: Is there something you’d like to say to those who feel discouraged and overwhelmed by difficulties?
[00:56]
Riccardo: Learn to turn your weaknesses and your fears into your strengths, because I believe we can all crush it!
[01:04]
Vanni: So far you’ve been driving me, but now, Riccardo, come with me—I’ll take you somewhere.
[01:05–01:30]
[Riccardo and Vanni continue the experience outdoors. They are seen tackling a trekking route that goes through a cave and then along a via ferrata.]
