What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

I didn't know why people felt happy or sad in determined situations.

I had a fantasy world, I was always there and that was the best place to be, when I was anxious I went there and zone out.

I watched some films over and over again specially my favourite scenes.

I was a calm baby, I didn't cry that much and I didn't need another person's entertainment.

I also didn't group play, I was physically close to those children but I was parallel playing most of the time.
