Healthy-ishWhat does it really mean to be ‘on the spectrum’?
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is often labelled as a disease that affects men more than women. But film director, screenwriter and actor Kathleen Lee is proof it affects women too - but that diagnosis can be harder, or take longer. Playing the main protagonist in her film Sex & Death, Kathleen explores what the experience of being neurodiverse in a neurotypical friendship group, and how those with ASD manage those feelings of social isolation and confusion.
