Colors

When autistic ten-year-old Derrick sees how light going through glass makes rainbow colors upon a wall, he is astounded. The boy who shows him this trick, Gavin, tells him about how his class got to go to an art exhibit in the city with hundreds of pieces of glass all strung up to make multi-colors. Derrick wants to go more than he has wanted anything in his entire life, but he cannot find the words to say it. Instead the only thing he can say is “Colors.” When his mom and dad don’t understand, he gets frustrated and decides to find the glass art exhibit on his own. The problem is, what can he do if he can’t find his way back?
