Summary of C.R.A.Z.Y.

This warm, compelling Canadian drama considers the emotional dynamics of a family, particularly the life of one unique son, Zac, in relation to his father and his brothers as he sets out to discover his true self, only then earning the love and acceptance of his family. Distinguished by a strong script and excellent acting, C.R.A.Z.Y. is part domestic realism, part mystical fable, and 100% absorbing.
