Books and Films

Who is the hero in the book "Planet Willi"?
Who plays the main role in the film "Be my Baby"? People with Down syndrome are found in books and films.
We want to collect these books and films.

TOUCHDOWN 21 collects information about people with Down syndrome.
Willi is the hero of a German children's book.
Carina Kühne stars in the movie "Be my Baby".
Nigel Hunt published his diary. In 1966.

"The daughter of the photographer" has Down syndrome, her twin brother does not.
In the movie "Me too (Yo, también)" Pablo Pineda falls in love with his work colleague.

We want to make three long lists:

  • In which books do people with Down syndrome appear?
  • What books were written by people with Down syndrome?
  • And: In which films do people with Down syndrome appear?

We'd love it if many people participate.
By sending us their recommendations for books and films.
Either by e-mail or by using this form.
