When Beth's son Evan James was diagnosed with Autism in the early 90s, treatment options were limited. Doctors offered no practical advice for daily living and advised Beth to limit his social interactions. Rejecting these notions, Beth sets out to provide her son with a life filled with purpose and friendship. This heartfelt film is a sweet testament to the power of love and community by following a determined mom advocating for her son.

A new documentary that’s as much about information and awareness as it is a heartfelt personal story... an evocative film that pulls at our heartstrings while enlightening us to a number of past and present-day truths.

You Have No Idea exists to bring awareness to the struggles and joys of parents with autistic children. As much as You Have No Idea is the story of Beth and Evan, it’s also designed to be a resource.

A delicate, compelling and relatable story that is heartfelt without becoming mawkish or emotionally prescriptive to tell about the tribulations -- and rewards -- of raising a different kid in the 1990s and beyond.

I watched this movie twice now and just love it this family is incredible and the way they brought everyone together is powerful i almost wish it was longer because i wanted to keep watching and learn more but i'm glad we got what we did and i think beth is an amazing person! I think everyone needs to watch this movie because even though there are really sad parts and struggles there is so much joy that the audience and family feels and it brings a smile to your face
