The leopard shall lie down with the goat. The wolves shall live with
the lambs. And the young boy will lead them.
Lensed in Ohio’s Broadview Developmental Center in 1967 by secret
camera genius and audio visual healer Jeffrey Paull, Scrapbook tells
the story of audacious autistic Donna Washington in her own words, as
she encounters pictures of one of her former selves fifty years later.

Who needs a home and family when you've got four wheels? A man leads
an organized life. He jogs each morning, works in the office nine to
five, picks up the laundry once a week. True, he lives in his car, and
he hasn’t seen his wife and daughter for a while. But don’t we all
need a little break from the world every so often? Part character
study, part road movie, RESPITE is the atmospheric story of a
modern-day hermit.
