According to the CDC, 1 in 68 children are being identified with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Whether it's a sibling, cousin, neighbor or co-worker, we all know someone living with autism. Yet many of us lack a clear understanding of what autism is.
Bluebirds Fly follows three families, each with a child on the autism spectrum, with the goal of shedding light on these questions and more. In this deeply moving and informative film, the families share their stories - from the shock of the initial diagnosis, to navigating the health care and school systems, to finding appropriate therapies - we witness their dedication, resilience, humor and acceptance.
