I have another documentary on the theme of Maths and ASD that I recommend, here it is for those so inclined.
Title:Growing Pains of a Teenage Genius
Subject: Cameron Thompson
"Cameron Thompson is a young man with Aspergers Syndrome and severe anxiety issues.
Going through school he was bullied and struggled to cope with everyday pressure but he was very good at Maths.
He was able to lose himself in mathematical study and this was his passion. At the age of 15 he was awarded a B.Sc (Hons) degree. When he turned 16 he went to the local 6th form college but quit after one day; he could not cope with the pressure and all the people. Focusing on further studies, Cameron began his Masters Degree and this became his whole life. He loves his maths and it lets him escape from his difficulties."

I already watched this one. Since documentaries about people with ASD and who are good at maths are so rare I keep an eye out for them. I'm pretty sure I've watched almost all of them.
This guy does sound a lot like me. Asperger's and severe anxiety issues + profound mathematics talent.
