'In Our World': Delving into the world of autism
The HinduIn Our World, a documentary by award-winning filmmaker Shreedhar B.S. Produced by Mr. Shreedhar’s Shred Creative Lab Private Ltd, the film highlights autism spectrum disorder through the lives of three children. Rather, my take was to show them as regular kids who do have certain behavioural issues but nothing that cannot be handled or tackled to bring them within the folds of ‘normal’ society,” Mr. Shreedhar said. “So through this film, I wish to dispel the popular, uninformed misconceptions that float around ASD; showcase their lives in all its day-to-day reality to drive home this message that they are like any other children,” he said. “We ought to accept them for who they are and bring them into the folds of our society so that there is one world; a world where children are not discriminated for their flaws but loved for their qualities.” He added, “One world, our world, where each one has a unique role to play can pave the way for a more inclusive society and that is the essence of the movie.” Mr. Shreedhar said he might make a documentary on adult autistic persons to highlight their challenges.
