Documentary Screening cum Public Talk 電影播放及講座
“Life, Animated”
Have you ever met people with autism but you were unable to know their thoughts and they act as if they do not know how to communicate with the outside world?
In respond to World Autism Awareness Day on 2 April, Autism Partnership Foundation organises Autism Awareness Actions (AAAs) this year. One of the activities is documentary screening cum talk. The selected movie, “Life, Animated” has won the Sundance Film Festival Award for Best Direction and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature category at the 89th Academy Awards. The movie introduces the growth and development of a teenager with autism. It tells how he lived in his own world at first and how to find a unique way to express himself, then he was able to integrate into the community.
We are also going to hold a talk after the documentary screening. An experienced therapist will explain skills and technique of Applied Behavior Analysis in an easily understandable manner and how to communicate with people with autism through case sharing, enhancing the public awareness of autism.

【動畫醫神】
有沒有曾經遇上自閉症人士，你無法得知他們的想法，同時覺得他們彷彿不知道如何與外界溝通？
愛培自閉症基金響應「世界關注自閉症日」而舉辦的「關注自閉症大行動」，其中一項活動是【動畫醫神】電影放映及講座。此電影榮獲辛丹斯電影節最佳導演獎（紀錄片組）及奧斯卡金像獎最佳紀錄片提名，將帶領觀眾走進主角（自閉症人士）的成長過程，如何從活在自己的世界裡，到後來找到方法來表達想法，繼而有機會融入社區。
我們會在電影播放後隨即舉行講座，資深治療師將以深入淺出的手法講解「應用行為分析」的理論，並引用不同的個案說明如何與自閉症人士溝通，讓大眾加深對自閉症的認識。
