Caterina Scorsone

Her daughter Paloma "Pippa" has Down Syndrome.

When I was three and a half years old, I heard my big sister tell my mum that all day, at school, all the kids sat on the floor and watched La historia interminable (1984). Having never heard of the movie, I concluded that this was what school must be about: sitting cross-legged, on the floor, listening to a never-ending story, page after page.
