Hey Jude (2018) | Malayalam

The film starts with Jude, who has Asperger’s Syndrome. His father Dominic (Siddique), sibling Andrea and others are baffled by his behaviour as he is quite fastidious. His bizarre ways test the patience of everyone, except his mother Maria (Neena Kurup).

Jude’s past experiences have been so overpowering that it has cast a shadow on his persona and made him a walking-talking automaton.

Sebastian, a former psychologist, and Crystal are intrigued by Jude’s ardent love for numbers.
