Wretches & Jabberers
Wretches & Jabberers is a 2011 American documentary film directed by Gerardine Wurzburg and produced by Wurzburg and Douglas Biklen.The film is about two autistic men, Larry Bissonnette and Tracy Thresher, who travel with their aides to Sri Lanka, Japan, and Finland to meet other autistic people with limited ability to converse verbally, and to challenge attitudes about disability and intelligence. The film's title comes from a comment made by one of the people they visit in Finland, who groups people into "wretches" like all of them and "jabberers" who speak easily. It opened in the United States on April 1, 2011. Notably, the men use facilitated communication to communicate, which is a scientifically discredited technique.
