Made within a span of two-and-a-half years, the film traces the history of autism in the Philippines dating back to the 1970s when awareness about the disability was practically nil. It shows the plight and the struggle of persons with autism, their families, and those involved in their lives, especially focusing on the experiences of Mothers in handling and coping up with the situation of having an autistic child.

Oral history in treatment, the filmmaker Ms. Mirana Medina takes the audience along with her in a personal quest to find out what autism really is, starting with the case of her grand niece Alyana, the only member of their family with autism.
