Last year, 1 out of every 150 children were diagnosed with autism, a staggering number. Currently there is no medical detection or cure for autism. Getting My Child Back: Fighting Autism taps into the emotional distress of several families who cope with the difficulty of raising children who have autism.
We’ll take you into their homes as well as a highly specialized school that offers on-on-one teaching, advanced educational methods and unconditional love to their students. This school is called Ascent: A School for Individuals With Autism. Ascent has transformed despair and heartache into hope and promise.
Awareness of autism is on the rise, and the fight to combat autism has just begun-and Ascent is helping lead the way. More and more, organizations are getting involved in trying to raise monies to fund autism research and schools like Ascent. This film sheds light on living in and coping with the world of autism.
Kenny Albert, broadcaster for the N.Y. Rangers, Fox Sports and the Olympics, was the narrator for the award winning short film, Brian Biegel (writer, producer and director of the soon to be released "Shot Heard Round the World") wrote, produced and directed the film, and Steve Biegel, creative mastermind behind the Maria Sharapova Canon commercials, also lent his expertise to the film. Please know that Kenny, Brian and Steve all contributed their respective talents to the film free of charge out of the goodness of their hearts!
