A new documentary, 'In a Different Key,' tells the story of autism — several stories, really. Fox News Digital spoke to the film's producers ahead of the PBS air date of December 13.
"In a Different Key," have created a new film of the same name. It's scheduled to be shown on PBS on Tuesday, Dec. 13.
It shows a range of realities experienced by those who have"profound autism, people who lead independent lives, women with autism, people of color with autism, people who live in poverty with autism — it really covers everything," said Zucker. The producers have been showing their film in recent months in small group settings — so they've seen the reaction. That reaction includes the woman who stopped them on the street after seeing the film and told them,"I get it now! I totally get it."
The film "In a Different Key" takes viewers into the lives of a number of people diagnosed with autism, including Donald Triplett of Forest, Mississippi , the first person in this country to be diagnosed, in the 1940s. At left are Caren Zucker and her son, Mickey, who also appear in the film. Donald Triplett of Mississippi, born in 1933, was the first person to be diagnosed with autism — and "In a Different Key" tells his revealing story. It also tells the story of a range of other individuals.that there's much more work to be done so that everybody, every community, is inspired by the way Donald's community in Forest, Mississippi, has respected, welcomed and honored him for his whole life.
