The world for them is a mass of people, places and events which they struggle to make sense of, and which can cause them considerable anxiety. Understanding and relating to other people, and taking part in everyday family and social life may be harder for them.
The film features the personal stories, challenges and triumphs of children with autism. It also includes interviews with professionals who have studied and worked in the field.
