Love & Friendship:
A warm welcome to one and all,
On Monday, 24 August @8:30 pm is a return to the regular offering of ‘watch along’ events where we can all congregate together virtually to watch films!🎥😎
The main course this week is AUTISM IN LOVE (2015), a moving, perceptive documentary following a quartet of adults on the autism spectrum in varying stages of their romantic journeys – from the dreaded dating scene and seeking that perfect match, to the highs and lows of married life.
The screening link (Watch2Gether) is here: https://w2g.tv/rooms/epoxe2w11o0he00b81?lang=en
(apologies, I had to create a new event for this watch along as calendar wrong)

The run time of feature is 1 hour, 11 mins. Immediately following the feature is a playlist of short videos. The first three are short interviews with Dave and Lindsey, the main couple from the film.
The last two videos are snippets taken from the hugely successful Netflix series LOVE ON THE SPECTRUM: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kX-QbcXyZug Runtime for short videos is approx. 9 minutes, with the entire runtime of playlist around 1 hour, 21 mins, scheduled to finish by 10 pm.
The screening link (Watch2gether) for the films (1hr, 11 min feature followed by 9 mins videos) will be posted to this page 24 hours before the start time, so be sure to check this page out beforehand! Please feel free to go in and out, or leave early if you wish of course 🙂
Watch2gether:
We will be using the Watch2gether platform, and the films will start promptly at 8:30 pm, finishing by 10 pm. There’s NO registration required – just click on the screening link and it takes you straight to the playlist, adding you as an anonymous user.
I encourage people to enter the anonymous text chat, but if you do not feel up to it then no worries, just sit back and enjoy! (NO voice/video chat function, text chat ONLY) 😎
Thanks again all, this film is one that features long ago in this meetup, only it had such strong feedback from members I decided to revisit, hope you enjoy! Please RSVP to this event page if you attend to join, just so I have some idea on numbers 😊
