Temple Grandin (2010)


Based on a true story.
Made for HBO, released February 6th in the US.
Filmed entirely in Texas.
The story: At a young age, Temples's mother gets word that her only daughter is autistic.
The doctors tell her mother to institutionalize her daughter, but she just will not have that.
Temple has some very hard times but she always rises above them somehow.
Her mother works hard to do everything she can for her daughter, and she sends her daughter to a school which is in Temples' very best interest.
There, she learns many things about herself, due to a very good friend/teacher who tests her abilities.
Temple ends up going to and graduating from college and while doing so, is in the process all the while of making a huge name for herself as a writer and inventor.
