This film is about an autistic woman who became an unlikely hero to America’s cattle industry – and to autistic people everywhere. Based on the writings of the real Temple Grandin, this is a portrait of a stigmatized, misunderstood young woman who learned to channel her unique gifts into a brilliant career as a scientist, author and groundbreaking animal activist.
