It's a story of two love affairs: a father's love for his five sons, and
one son's love for his father. That son is Zac Beaulieu, born on the 25th of
December 1960, different from all his brothers, but desperate to fit in. During the
next 20 years, life takes Zac on a surprising and unexpected journey that ultimately
leads him to accept his true nature. A mystical fable about a modern-day Christ-like
figure, "C.R.A.Z.Y" exudes the beauty, the poetry and the madness of the
human spirit in all its contradictions.
