Hi, I'm Leah with your Newsround update.

:00:00.:00:00.

The kids in Brazil learning a new sport.

:00:00.:00:08.

And the dynamic duo winning gymnastic gold.

:00:09.:00:24.

First to a new short film starring a ten-year-old boy with autism.

:00:25.:00:27.

The condition affects nearly a million people in the UK

:00:28.:00:30.

and the film has been made to try to help people

:00:31.:00:33.

Watch out for flashes in this report from BBC reporter Nikki Fox.

:00:34.:00:43.

For some, everyday life can be difficult.

:00:44.:00:46.

Ten-year-old Alex is in the voice-over Bush,

:00:47.:00:57.

adding the finishing touches to a film he stars

:00:58.:01:00.

It is all about understanding autism, and who best

:01:01.:01:04.

For him the experiences in this film are a very real.

:01:05.:01:15.

One of the main things is people just

:01:16.:01:17.

I know that seems very silly and I know that seems,

:01:18.:01:25.

busy crowd, busy things, but that is hard.

:01:26.:01:31.

But something tiny like that will affect my day for a very long

:01:32.:01:34.

One city with ambitions to make life easier for people like Alexander's

:01:35.:01:44.

Here at one of its largest museums, changes have been made to improve

:01:45.:01:49.

the experiences of people with autism.

:01:50.:01:55.

Alex and his brother, Sam, I'm learning all about starfish.

:01:56.:01:57.

Normally this area would be chaotic but it is quiet and that suits

:01:58.:02:01.

It has taken away the bad things and left the good things.

:02:02.:02:13.

You have elaborated it perfectly, a lot better than most people.

:02:14.:02:21.

The film will be shown in cinemas across

:02:22.:02:23.

the UK and the message is simple, the smallest of changes for someone

:02:24.:02:26.

like Alexander's family could make a world of difference.

:02:27.:02:36.

I hope it will make people aware of some of the things I have said, and

:02:37.:02:45.

make them have some respect. That's very important matter as much as

:02:46.:02:47.

anything. Now to some amazing gymnasts

:02:48.:02:48.

who've won gold medals The dynamic duo is made up 12 year

:02:49.:02:51.

old Kieran and 17 year old Callum. Here's a look at the type

:02:52.:02:55.

of amazing things they can do. They performed several spectacular

:02:56.:03:02.

routines which included daring lifts I asked them how

:03:03.:03:06.

they felt to win gold. If you do one good one, it's just

:03:07.:03:52.

going to be bad so you just have to keep doing it.

:03:53.:03:55.

Do you scared get -- gets carried that it might go wrong? I just have

:03:56.:04:01.

to do what I've been told. If I think about is calamine is not

:04:02.:04:06.

myself, something about what he's doing, it's a bit like I forget what

:04:07.:04:10.

I am doing. For the future, where would you like

:04:11.:04:16.

to be? We would definitely like to continue and get as many things as

:04:17.:04:21.

we can. We are always looking for opportunities and more places to

:04:22.:04:23.

win. We have the real well in pics in

:04:24.:04:27.

August. Is that our name for you guys, to be at an all of the games?

:04:28.:04:35.

We would love to be. But that would take lots of work? Lots more. What

:04:36.:04:45.

will you do with your medals? We were looking at getting them framed.

:04:46.:04:51.

Thank you so much. Children in Rio in Brazil

about Jesy but she went on social media to thank her fans
