Autism Every Day (2006)
44 minutes was long enough
I saw this not knowing very much about autism. After seeing it, I can only say that my heart aches for any parent that has to "suffer the little children" who are afflicted. More than anything else, I wanted so badly to alleviate the non-stop agony and horror that comes with attempting to raise an autistic child. I kept thinking that the parents will NEVER know another day's peace, that their lives are essentially over with. The ending of the film does attempt to give the parents' lives a happier gloss, but I didn't buy it. Still, I have to admit that the point was effectively conveyed in 44 minutes. A couple of hours after watching it, I walked into my house, became quiet and got down upon my knees and thanked god I don't have to deal with autistic children. If you were on the fence about whether or not to begin a family and have children, watch this - it'll go a long way toward cementing your decision.
