I guarantee you that there were more Hebrew speakers on this flight than most flights have deaf people. The great majority of them could not understand the movie -- but was Alitalia really required to provide Hebrew subtitles?
They could have flown an airline that had them. Deaf people do not have that option. So your analogy fails.
