What would you do if your community gave up on your child?

In New Jersey, the parents of a boy on the autism spectrum take matters into their own hands. They form a competitive swim team, recruiting diverse teens on the spectrum and training them with high expectations and zero pity.

Swim Team chronicles the extraordinary rise of the Jersey Hammerheads, capturing a moving quest for inclusion, independence and a life that feels winning.

Students admitted free!
The BFMS and TJMS Bands will perform before the film is shown.

Talkback with Coach Mike and son Mikey; Dr. David Levesque, who has Tourette Syndrome; and Mike Hayden, NJ Center for Tourette Syndrome
