THE REASON I JUMP is based on the bestselling book The Reason I Jump: The Inner Voice of a Thirteen-Year-Old Boy with Autism by Naoki Higashida and exposes an intense and overwhelming but at the same time sensuous, undiscovered universe. Through intimate portraits of remarkable young men from all across the globe who share his fate, Higashida reveals for us what it is like to be autistic, a world he himself documented at the age of 13.
An intense journey of discovery, this documentary has a clear message: Just because you can’t speak, it doesn’t mean you don’t have anything to say.
