In a Different Key
2021 · Film · documentary · 98 min
Directed by Caren Zucker, John Donvan
A mother tracks down the first person ever diagnosed with autism, now an elderly man in rural Mississippi, to learn if his life story holds promise for her own autistic son. Her journey exposes a startling record of cruelty and kindness alike, framed by forces like race, money and privilege – but leads to hope that more of us are learning to have the backs of those who are "different".

As the article mentions, Donald was featured in a documentary called "In A Different Key". I highly recommend it. Very informative about autism in general, the good, the bad, and everything in between.
