Per the College's website -

This 2009 fictional film depicts the life of a "brilliant, yet awkward, astronomy buff, who is drawn out of his sheltered existence by his beautiful and outgoing new neighbor."  Hugh Dancy plays this young man with Asperger Syndrome, and it is an interesting depiction of his social and career triumphs and challenges.  The film will be followed by an informal discussion/social designed for individuals with autism, Asperger or PDD and their families or friends.
