This stunning film explores an unusual form of human intelligence which still baffles scientists: the autistic savant, ie people who have phenomenal and inexplicable mental gifts, whilst often suffering from mental retardation and autism. Classically portrayed in the Oscar-winning film Rainman by Dustin Hoffman, this film explores the extraordinary mental talents of British savant Daniel Tammet.
