Here is a list of autism films I have compiled. I am working on a documentary list which I will post up.

The Cry of the Owl
I highly recommend it. The guy has depression, but I think he has quite a few autistic traits too.

Don't forget the classic Wretches and Jabberers, featuring two nonspeaking autistic men -- Tracy Thresher and Larry Bissonnette! There's also William Davenport's Citizen Autistic, which I think he's working on the second edition of, and the soon-to-be-released Deej, written, produced, and directed by David James (DJ) Savarese, who is graduating this month from Oberlin as its first nonspeaking autistic student.
