The Reason I Jump


Based on the bestselling book by Naoki Higashida, an immersive cinematic exploration of neurodiversity through the experiences of nonspeaking autistic people from around the world. The film blends Higashida's revelatory insights into autism, written when he was just 13, with intimate portraits of five remarkable young people. It opens a window for audiences into an intense and overwhelming, but often joyful, sensory universe. Nominated for the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance.
