In his early years, autistic child Owen Suskind would only engage with Disney films. One day his father had the idea to communicate with him using dialogue from Aladdin and remarkably Owen replied with words from the film. From there, the family used Disney films as a pathway to language and a connection to the world at large. Oscar-winning director Roger Ross Williams interweaves classic Disney scenes with real footage of Owen’s life to explore a young adult who faces insurmountable odds in his move towards living independently.
