Educational to the listener moving and a real eye-opener that is worth Listening too Roxanne is a typical teenage girl who is into music and clothes but struggles to make friends due to"inappropriate" behaviour and sudden violent attacks. Moneer lost his mother recently and is prone to bouts of frustration. Esther is alone and generally an outsider in her community, with a background of always being by herself. Roy obsessively talks about Eastenders and gets annoyed if his video collection has it's labelling even slightly out of whack and is easily thrown by new things. All have Autism. This programme follows the four people and sees what "normal" life means for them.With with no more than a vague knowledge of autism and finished Listening to this will make you feeling moved, cheered and rather tearful. Suffice to say it was an eye opening Show that you be very glad you listened too.However what the Show does well is simply shows what autism means for these four people.It is too easy to look at autism and see it simply as people playing up, being loud, being rude or just being difficult – I have only known one person really well who I suspected of being autistic convincing and moving in showing this. Each person is likable but yet "different" and each makes for a compelling Show. Roy wants to be normal but his painful attempts to overcome himself are difficult and moving to Listen – he knows what he should feel but cannot. Moneer is the main focus, probably because he is the most outward child, talkative but prone to wild swinging emotionally. His story and his feelings are engaging and, although he appears outwardly very able, you do wonder how he will manage in the years to come. Esther serves well as a bookend to the other stories but she isn't developed to let us understand her. For me Roxanne was the most moving of the four and the film shows her struggling and (physically) fighting herself to try and stop hurting others or just being rude to them; she is so needing of love but yet so unable of stopping her bad side coming through.For each of them the Show has a positive ending but really it is only a matter of them showing that they will battle on – but you do have to wonder how well they can do or how they can cope long-term. The lack of solutions will bother some Listeners Maybe but this is not what the Show is about – it is about educating the you the listener as to the daily, hourly meaning of autism to the sufferers. The normal can be impossible, little things are difficult, some basic concepts just cannot be understood. It does this very well and is moving, enlightening and a very worthwhile way to spend about 19 minutes of your time to listen to.http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0464102/
