When Evan Bertrand was diagnosed with autism at eighteen months, doctors told his mother, Andrea, to go home and mourn the loss of a “normal child.” Defying medical predictions, Andrea works with Evan to nurture his musical talent. Twenty years later, mother and son prepare for the biggest concert of their lives—and redefine what it means to be extraordinary.
