The subject of this film is Sue Rubin, a woman with autism who was considered mentally retarded as a child. At the age of thirteen, she learned to express herself through a computer keyboard, otherwise known as facilitated communication, revealing that she was in fact highly intelligent. She went on to study history, specializing in Latin American History at Whittier College and to write speeches about her life with autism. Director Wurzburg has called Rubin "the Helen Keller of her generation". Rubin's dialogue is narrated by actress Julianna Margulies.
