Honorees and new parents Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel donned
baseball caps in a nod to Student Advocate of the Year recipient Mars
Hallman. “Take them off. We look like another boy band,” Timberlake
quipped. He thanked the Gay Lesbian & Straight Education Network for
“allowing mommy and daddy to have a rare date night” and thanked the
org for promoting change. “Thank you GLSEN for everything that you do
to ensure individuality of every kid that is lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender,
is respected, protected and treasured in our schools,” said Biel.

The documentary chronicles the coaching and preparations that a
group of young people on the autism spectrum undergo for months
leading up to a formal dance. “I hope everyone feels like they’re walking
with them into that dance,” said filmmaker Alexandra Shiva. “I was really
curious about what coming of age looked like for (autistic) youth,”
she said. “I’ve always been attracted to stories of people who are
searching for a sense of belonging. I love stories of human resilience.”
