Deej is a 2017 documentary about David James (DJ) Savarese, a nonspeaking autistic teenager who communicates with a voice synthesizer. The film has been criticized as using the scientifically discredited facilitated communication technique;^[3] however, it has been stated that Deej actually used augmentative and alternative communication, which is often mistaken for facilitated communication.^[4]
