Hannah is 35 years old when she receives the diagnosis that changes everything: Asperger's autism. As an autistic woman, Hannah begins to understand herself and her past in a new way and to change her life. Before the autism test, Hannah had felt somehow "different" her whole life without knowing exactly why. Suddenly all the challenges in social life and her need for structure and routines make sense. Quark's documentary gives insights into her autistic perception and shows autism tests that Hannah also takes. What falls under the autistic spectrum and how common is autism? And why does there seem to be a high number of undetected autistic people, especially among women? About the discussed causes of autism spectrum disorders and what others can learn from dealing with autistic people in terms of communication, facial expressions and behavior - here in Quark's documentary. // Chapters: 00:00 – Embarking on a new life 02:50 – The autism spectrum 04:03 – Before the diagnosis at 35 06:40 – How does autism develop? 07:42 – Education and family life 12:28 – How common is autism? 14:00 – Test at the Institute of Psychology at Humboldt University in Berlin 18:53 – Special communication: facial expressions, emotions, small talk 20:02 – Hannah’s path to becoming an IT specialist // Our team: Author: Mike Schaefer Camera: Christoph Berg, Thomas Koppehele, Mike Schaefer Editing: Lukas Baumgart, Andreas Fennen Graphics: Kirsten Meier, Robert Bodner Speaker: Rabea Wyrwich Editor: Claudia Heiss // Click here for the source document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1K... // More on the topic: We interviewed Hannah a few years ago for this video: Autism: All questions allowed! • Autism: All questions allowed!
