Idk if she does but if people restrain autistic people the way the other characters restrain Music it could be very harmful to their physical health and even fatal.

I don't know why there is more no's than yeses. Felix's (an Asian kid) father chokes his mother then strikes Felix, knocking him into a table and killing him; blood is quickly seen. PS: I am actually autistic and I despised this movie so much all of my heart!

An autistic person is portrayed by a neurotypical actress, in a way that is reminiscent of children mocking someone with an intellectual disability. The 14yo actress is reported to have been hesitant (FWIW), but the writer/director insisted the portrayal was not problematic.

In response to a meltdown, an autistic minor is forcibly restrained and pinned face down on the ground with an adult partially sitting on top of them. This is also known as the “prone” restraint and it is highly dangerous and can cause asphyxiation in the individual being restrained.

It should be noted that the autistic minor was not a danger to herself or others, only engaging in loud vocal stimming and lightly slapping herself. The adult caregivers’ FIRST response was to restrain her with zero attempts at non-violent de-escalation. The narrative does not seem to frame this as abuse (it is) but as a “normal” and necessary response to a meltdown.

You don't even have to watch the movie to see this, the trailer is full of very triggering flashing lights and very fast changes/movements. Absolutely not accessible.

Even ignoring the infamous advocacy of restraint, this movie is just plain not good at depicting autism as Music is infantilized to hell and back, and has little to no agency as a character. And autistic people are not even the only victim of this either!

And also repetitive mockery of autistic movements/stims, which also feels deeply hateful.

This whole movie is ableist because it perpetuates the fact that autistic people are broken or need to be cured. The main autistic character is played by a neurotypical actress, there are scenes infantilising Music and physically restraining her during meltdown. Sia also partnered with an autistic hate group to make this movie (Autism Speaks).
