The Diary
“In flip-flops at the foot of the Himalayas”. That's how Marie felt when her son Ismaël was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder when he was two and a half years old. At the time, she and Ismaël's father found themselves immersed, overnight, in a world filled with medical initials that she did not know.

In this documentary-fiction, Marie combines the story of this rise with testimonies and interviews from other parents, educators, health professionals and autistic people.
