    • Synopsis
    • In Mark Ruffalo’s directorial debut, a music DJ who is paralyzed in a car accident discovers he mysteriously acquires the ability to lay hands on the sick and cure their ailments – yet cannot heal himself. When success and fame beckon in the form of a rock band, Dean sells himself out along with his divine power in exchange for his rock’n’roll dreams.
      Sympathy for Delicious is a wholly original story exploring the lasting effects of tragedy and the ultimate redemptive power of compassion.
