Synopsis: Paul, a young autistic man, struggles to deal with his father’s terminal cancer diagnosis while haunted by Ever Green—a character from a Hollywood autism film he despises. Through therapy sessions and painful memories, Paul confronts his grief, his strained relationship with his father, and society’s stereotypical portrayals of autism.
A raw exploration of neurodiversity, family dysfunction, and the Hollywood gaze on disability.
