    Abstract

    Based on the best-selling book by Naoki Higashida, The Reason I Jump is a feature documentary exploring the experiences of nonspeaking autistic people from around the world. Directed by Jerry Rothwell (who also directed the road movie ​Heavy Load, 2008), the film is described by Dr Alison Wilde as a deeply engaging, beautiful film, which also gives rise to feelings of ambivalence.
