Spellers challenges conventional wisdom regarding a group relegated to society’s margins: nonspeakers with autism, who most “experts” believe are cognitively disabled. Spellers tells the story of eight nonspeakers who all found their voice through the miraculous process of using a letterboard to communicate their thoughts and feelings. (Phoenix Film Festival)
