If You Could Say It In Words - West Coast Premiere

For those that couldn't see it in Kentucky, this movie will be playing at a festival in Los Angeles at the end of the month. (Also, screening at an autism conference in Nebraska in mid-April. You can contact Adam Eisenstein for details about any screening, or visit us on FaceBook.)

With two aspie-related movies at this festival, this is a great chance for the community to show Hollywood that there is an audience for movies about autistics, that these don't need to be treated as "fringe movies" about "fringe characters". I encourage you, if you're in the Los Angeles area, to come out and make your presence felt.

Thanks to the WP community for its continued support.

An award-winning love story about an impoverished painter with undiagnosed Asperger’s syndrome, If You Could Say It In Words will have its second public screening and West Coast Premiere at the Method Fest film festival in Calabasas, CA on March 29 at 7pm.

The film features:
Obie-award winner Marin Ireland, who makes her Broadway debut this spring in Neil Labute’s reasons to be pretty and before that garnered rave reviews for Sarah Kane's Blasted [Soho Rep].
