Description
Experience a unique animated anthology created by autistic artists that explores the lived experience of autism through five imaginative short films. Presented in an animatic storyboard-style format, Autistic Mode highlights sensory experiences, special interests, creativyt, and the challenges of navigating the social world. Blending humor, music, gaming culture, and sci-fi storytelling, the film offers an authentic and engaging look at neurodivergent perspectives and celebrates what the creators call "autistic cool".
New Rochelle librarian and film historian Chris Poggiali will introduce the film and will be joined for a post-screening discussion and Q&A with filmmaker Bob Clark.
