Summary
The film focuses on a paralyzed DJ (Thornton) trying to survive on the
streets of Los Angeles. In a desperate attempt to gain control of his limbs, the DJ goes to a
faith healer. Instead of the healing working for him, he gains the
ability to heal others, but not himself. He starts to cash in on his new
talents, and finds himself between a Jesuit priest (Ruffalo) who tries
to help him, and the lead of a "tough as nails" band (Bloom) who wants
to exploit him. Linney is playing the band's manager, working hard to stay relevant in a 21st century musical
world.
