Robert Gagno is exceptional at playing pinball. He's a legend in the area's pinball community. He agreed to make a documentary so that people would see him as 'Robert' and not as 'Robert who has autism'.
His parents were told quite early on that their son... Would probably never read, write or speak. They ignored this diagnosis, and created a life for him without these perceptions.
Article and synopsis of the documentary, run time Ten minutes and 22 seconds.
