Temple Grandin (2010)

Amazing and inspiring story of Grandin, who was diagnosed with autism at age 4 -- back when autism was understood as a kind of childhood schizophrenia.

It's just gorgeously told. Temple understands the world in pictures and the director gets that across by giving us flashes of how she’s processing new concepts and phrases. Prejudice and triumph both get through marvelously here. A fantastic, beautiful, and important film.
