Flight cancellation compensation

I've been trying without success to get compensation for a cancelled flight from Venice to Birmingham (via Munich) last July (2018). I contacted Lufthansa who told me to contact Air Dolomiti, which I have done several times but no response.
I've even tried Bott & Co (complaints company) who've told me: 'Having reviewed both of your flights I can confirm that we do not have the jurisdiction to be able to assist you. As your flight does not depart/land in England or Wales, nor is it provided with an English/Welsh carrier we cannot pursue'.
I didn't realise that it had to be a direct flight to be able to claim compensation, which seems a bit unfair.
