Here is a clip of a speech from the Asperger/Autism NEtwork www.aane.org
Video Clip (7min 30sec)

Any video-clips on boosting social-skills might be relatable if social-situations are filmed in a candid format real-life settings.

In YouTube, I typed in the keywords "American Social Customs.' Sveral potential video-clips seemed promising - yet none seemd to pique interest.

Such clips did not mention the Autism Spectrum as a factor, yet I sense that some of these clips might be helpful if a person's social skills are ripe-for going beyond small talk with trusting people.

Any specific helpful video-clips that were done in a candid format with routine real-world social situations?

The answer is no! The video-clip examples mentioned are geared towards overseas audiences; who are considering extended stays the states - hence, common (routine) real-life examples (without mention of social-skills and the Autism Spectrum) might just prove helpful.

Simply put, the Autism Spectrum can be considered very much like "a stranger in one's own land" sentiment.

That's what I call a high-quality no.

It sounds like you are looking for "meeting people" and "handling situations" skills whereas I think Crappy Childhood Fairy talks more about once you are getting closer to people, are they a friend or not. All good.

The Autism Spectrum as much like "a stranger in one's own land" sentiment is "spot on."

Many NTs from non-Western countries might naturally feel like that "a stranger in one's own land" here in the States.

Video content would be geared towards overseas audiences. For example people who are sent to their Embassies in the US, or who are planning on extended stays in the States for business - hence video content geared towards audiences needing to learn more than enough "to get by!"

Anybody who researched for, and helped produce the PBS show on Autism 'In a Different Key' reading this discusion-thread? Any specific videos to contribute to this discussion thread?

ADDENDUM: Video-clips for inclusion in this forum can be similar in production style to the excellent PBS Show, 'POV, I Didn't See You There.' The show profiled a disabled man going-out into the world.

Fate wasted it on someone asocial like me. :lol:

All I have to do is type "How to be an OFW and assimilate in X country".

But then, except it's not applicable in my own country. :lol:

I would have to get by with 'someone who came from another isle/region/tribe, doesn't doesn't know the specific mores and doesn't speak the local language'.

Please avoid (the common) video-clips that treat adult audiences like children!

A 2min. 38sec. video-clip from a first person perspective. First person perspective videos are a must in this discussion thread!
