Beautiful Son

NEW DOCS

The filmmakers of Beautiful Son are the parents of Beau, whose change in behavior during the third year of his life led to a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder. “Beau wasn’t Beau anymore,” his parents say, as they take us on their quest to save their son from a condition that was once considered quite rare but is now approaching epidemic proportions. They team up with other parents and doctors in a grassroots movement to find alternative solutions to the complex and heartbreaking plight of autism.  TBW
