    Rated - 5 stars [Highly rated reviewer]

    Beautiful experience

    I totally agree with previous reviewer. I came out of this film feeling that I'd seen something small and special. It's provisionally a film about accepting someone with autism but it's really a lot more than that - it's about acceptance full stop. We are all complicated, flawed, often eccentric - the central character's autism is important and unique but also an extension of how difficult and challenging we can all be - including the other characters in the film. It's also about love, separation, loss, grief - and love. The setting, music, photography, performance all combine to produce a beautiful, nuanced, heart-warming, life-affirming experience.
