A while back I was looking up movies about people with autism and realized that there were non about females on the spectrum. I have even heard people say that there is no such thing as a girl with autism. I recently expressed to one of my acting teachers that there were no movies about females on the spectrum and he suggested that I write a script for it and get it going. I have found an experienced film maker who had expressed interest in my idea as she has a family member on the spectrum but wanted to do the script before she makes a commitment to it. I'd like to begin the movie with a voice over and clips of people of both genders on the spectrum between 0 and 5 years old doing things that are untypical of people at their developmental stage. So I was wondering if I could get some stories from parents or things that your parents have told you about yourself to give me a place to start. Thanks for your help.
