Dungeons & Spectrums
Ten-year-old Ross has autism and uses the popular role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons to navigate the complicated world of social interaction.
Ross is an imaginative boy with autism. The world around him can sometimes feel unpredictable and full of sensory stimuli, so he prefers to live in his own mind, filled with imagination and adventure.
Through the role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons, Ross explores how to communicate with others and let go of control step by step. But can his creativity and imagination find a place in everyday life? And what does it mean to live up to the expectation that you should behave ‘normally’?
