Quiz
This film is based on a technique formerly called "Facilitated Communication" (FC for short.) Countless experiments have demonstrated that FC does not work, and the messages being typed are completely (and unconsciously) being created by the facilitator, in much the same way as an Ouija Board. No independently-conducted and peer-reviewed (i.e., by anyone who is not part of the FC group) has found any evidence that the technique actually works.

This was demonstrated quite clearly in the Frontline episode "Prisoners of Silence."

In other words, this film and everything Sue is purported to have said almost certainly did not actually come from her, but from the person holding her arm as she "typed" it.

Caroline Goldsmith Autism is a World Review

Caroline Goldsmith is an Autism professional of many years in this field and found this a good watch. I am sure that some will find it provocative also. Both those in the spectrum and otherwise can learn from the insights portrayed here. The characters give a good picture of what life is like for them. And it is personal obviously at times. The film is good for people who know nothing about the subject and may be looking to learn more or for those who have a loved one or relative on the spectrum and are curious as to how life feels for them. I found it an intriguing watch and would highly recommend this movie.
