A great BBC documentary about 3 men with varying degrees of autism trying to escape the limbo between childhood and adulthood. Oli has "high functioning" autism and is desperate to be employed. Alex has Asperger's syndrome and he's looking for love. Tom is a young man with an autism spectrum disorder and he just wants to be like other people his own age. Overall the documentary presents a powerful picture of the struggles these young men face in overcoming their disorder.
