Based on the critically acclaimed book of short stories by Denis Johnson, Jesus’ Son chronicles the life of a young man, known only as F***head (Billy Crudup), as he careens through the underbelly of American culture. Often addicted to heroin or alcohol, he nevertheless greets life with compassion, humor, grace, and hope. Told as a remembrance of a time gone by, FH recounts a few years of his life in the mid-west, introducing us to the people he knew, the woman he loved. Starkly real yet gorgeously hallucinatory, F***head’s stories move through time ignoring chronology, but they’re far from aimless, painting a picture of a lost soul clearly on his way to recovery and redemption.
