Featuring a cast of autistic actors, CIRCLES follows OLLIE, a 16-year-old boy, throughout one day at school as his best friend CAM prepares to move away. At first, this loss appears to bounce off of Ollie as his autism makes his expressive language stilted, but when his peers start to mock his seeming non-reaction, the cracks begin to show in his indifferent façade. The result is both messy and affecting, a momentary portrait of the end of a unique friendship. Utilizing a cast comprised of primarily autistic youth and adults, CIRCLES authentically showcases a day in the life of neurodivergent individuals, without any of the stereotypes and melodrama often highlighted in popular culture and cinema. In the end, the film emphasizes a simple truth: While we may have our differences in communication, our ability to feel emotion is universal. |
