Melissa Hernandez on the Autism Society of Miami-Dade's Screening of Wretches & Jabbers

The Autism Society of Miami-Dade are pleased to announce a special screening of Wretches & Jabberers a documentary film by Gerardine Wurzburg.

Tracy Thresher and Larry Bissonnette are two Vermont men with autism who travel to Sri Lanka, Japan and Finland on a global quest to change attitudes about disability and intelligence. At each stop, they dissect public attitudes about autism and issue a challenge to reconsider competency.
Lee Grossman, President and CEO of the Autism Society, called the film "a provocative mix of self-advocacy, personal narrative and travel adventure that highlights the important needs of adults with autism, a group completely unrepresented on the world stage."
