Melanie's daughter, Jenny, who is autistic, had a bad experience at the last school dance. Now it's time for the final school dance before college, and Melanie wants to ensure it goes better than the previous one. To achieve this, she plans to make the dance more inclusive for children with special needs. She also wants this to be a surprise for Jenny. Melanie is supported and assisted by Jenny's literature teacher, Daniel. Meanwhile, Jenny and her best friends are secretly planning an alternative prom that suits them better. During the preparations, Jenny meets the school's new student, Will, who is also autistic.
This film does not depict severe autism, and it is, after all, a romantic film, not a drama. With that in mind, this is a very good and heart-warming movie. The autistic traits are certainly present and portrayed reasonably well, and Melanie's dedication to her daughter and growing interest in Daniel provide a good romantic framework.
