Let Me Explain
Let Me Explain
Synopsis
Police encounters are the worst nightmare for most people with Autism and their families. What could happen when the police start giving you direct orders and your body does not allow you to follow those directions?
Built-up out of disturbing archival footage and a unique behind the scenes look at LAPD Autism Awareness Training, Let Me Explain takes a hard and deep look into the increasing interactions between police and people with autism, some of which go terribly wrong.
