C.R.A.Z.Y.

Canada/Morocco/France, Feature Film, 2005, 129 min

Featuring music by David Bowie, Pink Floyd, Patsy Cline, and The Rolling Stones. This magical film covers two decades, the ‘60s and ‘70s, in a big, loving French-Canadian family, as narrated by Zac, the second-youngest of five boys. In a family that makes a big deal about everything, Zac creates major pandemonium as he begins a spiritual voyage of self-discovery. A rare combination of both intimate, character-driven auteur film and universally appealing crowd-pleaser, this emotional roller-coaster is a triumphant story of a beautifully ordinary family and the challenges of growing up different. C.R.A.Z.Y. exudes the beauty, the poetry and the madness of the human spirit in all its contradictions. Subtitled.

Directed by Jean-Marc Vallée
