Avalon’s not ready to process the loss of her mother, but when she's put in charge of a 4-year-old for one night, she finds more comfort than she ever could have expected.

For the members of the comedy troupe Asperger’s Are Us, it’s easier to associate with a faceless audience than with their own families. No matter who the crowd, best friends Noah, New Michael, Jack and Ethan have one simple mantra: “We would much rather the audience appreciate us as comedians than people who have overcome adversity.” In this coming-of-age heartfelt documentary, this band of brothers finds themselves at a crossroad.

People with Asperger’s don’t deal well with uncertainty, and this is the most uncertain time in their lives.

Meeting by chance when they return to their tiny California hometown, two former high-school sweethearts reflect on their shared past.
