Keep the Change (2017)

A couple that meet at an autism support group fall in love in this romantic comedy that won Rachel Israel Best New Narrative Director at Tribeca.

"David (Brandon Polansky) , an upper-class charmer, leads a very comfortable life, until he is mandated to attend a support group for adults with disabilities. There, he is forced to come to terms with his own high-functioning autism, despite his resentment towards being singled out as different, or anything other than what he interprets as ‘normal.’ In group, David is paired with Sarah (Samantha Elisofon) – a quirky and outgoing woman whose optimism initially irks David - and the two take a trip together to the Brooklyn Bridge. Despite their contrasting personalities, they forge a bond. As their relationship deepens, Sarah, confident in herself and her individuality, challenges David to embrace his own uniqueness.
