I have never related to a Pixar movie more than this one. Elio is a charming sci-fi movie all about a young boy named Elio Solis, who is desperate to find connection wih someone who resonates with him. I relate to him a lot, and I even think he might be autistic just like me. The movie also had colorful animation and quirky humor. I will happily watch it again.
