The Transporters

Autistic children tend to avoid looking at human faces, probably because they don’t understand why the features of the face move in the way they do, or that faces express the emotional or mental states felt by the person. This series of films uses mechanical vehicles with real actors’ faces to encourage autistic children to look more at human faces. The Transporters is a make-believe world of imaginary characters where vehicles have feelings! For children on the autistic spectrum, The Transporters acts as a bridge between the mechanical world that they can cope with and the human world of emotions that they usually turn away from.
