The Peruvian Director Alonso Mayo is in the process of making his first film "The Story of Luke", partly based on his experiences in the Centro Ann Sullivan del Perú (CASP), as recorded in his short documentary ”Just Like Anyone”.

“The Story of Luke” narrates the life of a young man with autism who, after having been overprotected all his life, embarks on a search for a job and a girl.
