| Summary |
14-year old Emma Zurcher-Long sees and hears the world, as she put it, in 'Hi-res, technicolor and surround sound'. While it may not always be easy for people to understand where Emma is coming from, it has become her mission to teach the world how potent, powerful and dynamic the life of a teenager with autism actually is. To achieve this Emma uses the keyboard to strengthen her communication with others. Applying her insightful writing as a catalyst and remedy to the fear and misunderstanding surrounding autism, Emma presents UNSPOKEN as a collaborative self-portrait. Her quest to enrich our understanding of what it means to be human takes Emma to conferences and schools across North America, where she shares a message of hope, love and acceptance. Official Selection at the **Mill Valley Film Festival** |
