Art and Employment - The Making of a Romantic Comedy with Actors on the Spectrum

All Autism Talk - A podcast by All Autism Talk

Categories:

When aspiring filmmaker David is mandated by a judge to attend a social program at the Jewish Community Center, he is sure of one thing: he doesn't belong there. But when he's assigned to visit the Brooklyn Bridge with the vivacious Sarah, sparks fly and his convictions are tested. Their budding relationship must weather Sarah's romantic past, David's judgmental mother, and their own pre-conceptions of what love is supposed to look like.  For dates and show times, visit: www.kinolorber.com/film/view/id/3084.
