Anna follows the actions and interactions of Anna, a young woman on the Autism Spectrum, and what happens when her routine is unexpectedly interrupted. Anna enjoys living a life of rigorous routine and her condition is made easier by her ability to control the little details of her day, which give her a sense of regularity. When someone unintentionally sits on her seat on her morning bus, her day is sent spinning out of control. This is a story about how Anna copes with unplanned changes to her day.
