This exclusive clip from The Story of Luke features the autistic Luke (Lou Taylor Pucci) getting distracted by a receptionists's "assets" during a job interview. Alonso Mayo directs this touching drama about a young man whose sheltered life is disrupted when grandparents die. Luke becomes determined to find his first job and live life on his own terms for the first time. Take a look at this scene from the upcoming indie, debuting in theaters and on VOD formats April 5.

Luke, 25, is autistic and lives a sheltered life with his grandparents. But his world is suddenly turned upside down when his grandmother dies and he is forced to live with his dysfunctional relatives who have no patience for him or his senile grandfather, who they quickly force into a nursing home. Luke is left with his grandfather's final semi-coherent words: "Get a job. Find a girl. Live your own life. Be a man!" For the first time in his life, Luke has a mission. He is about to embark on a quest.

The Story of Luke comes to theaters April 5th, 2013 and stars Lou Taylor Pucci, Seth Green, Kristin Bauer van Straten, Cary Elwes, Kenneth Walsh, Tyler Stentiford, Mackenzie Munro, Sabryn Rock.
