This movie was stunning and impressive. I just saw it at Sundance and everyone walked out uplifted and overwhelmed. It's a must see.
This documentary (which feels more like a movie) is so special. The way it explores the perspective from people with autism lets you see the world from a whole other perspective.
The macroshots of the people's perception are beautiful, and the music together with the narrated lines of the incredible book (which wrote a child!!) come amazingly together to this movie which lets you rethink about your views on autism, communication, strangers and the human kind.
I did know some things about autism before but this visualisation what children on the spectrum really might experience is different and mind-boggling.

Shares how those on the non verbal autism spectrum process their environmental data which is different for each of the 6 people this doc focuses on. Based on The Reason I Jump: One Boy's Voice from the Silence of Autism The Reason I Jump by Naoki Higashida.
Everyone should see this movie, so we can understand autism, and stop treating Autism and autistic people badly
a must watch.
You can see the love and craft in every frame of this movie. There were certain characters I would like to have seen more of, but I understand the constraints. The way it renders autism is very humanistic and he film does a really great job of bringing the viewer into this world. I saw it at the Hot Docs online and really wish I could have seen it on the big screen
It reminded me of another film I saw at Sundance a few years ago called Notes on Blindness which does a phenomenal job of 'seeing' the day to day of what a blind person's life could be like in an extraordinary way.
