We All Have Autism

Aaron has autism. He was diagnosed when he was four.  Now he is in his 30s. Aaron’s family, Clyde, Paula, Aiden and Levi, have supported him his whole life.

Originally from Melbourne, Australia, the family moved to London in the UK in 2010, to be closer to where Aiden, their second son, was working. In 2015 they returned to Melbourne. They now live in Southbank in an apartment beside the Yarra River.

We All Have Autism follows the journey that Aaron and his family have taken from when the filmmakers first encountered them when Aaron was six until today. It is 7Up for Autism, if you like. The film shows Aaron’s and his family’s lives when Aaron was 6, when he was in his teens, living in London and now back in Melbourne. It covers their lives from 1989 to 2020.

The film is important because autism is a developmental disorder and there are few studies that have been able to follow one individual throughout their life.

The film is currently in post production. The site will provide ongoing information on the progress of this film.
