"Jesus' Son follows a young man's journey and quest for love in the freewheeling '70s. The film's hero, a rumpled, hapless young man in his twenties, 'FH' (Billy Crudup, Almost Famous, Without Limits) bounces through his days with his dreams and hallucination blurring and merging into reality. The shaky center of his universe is his beloved on-again, off-again, girlfriend Michelle (Samantha Morton, Sweet and Lowdown). Wandering from one misadventure to another, 'FH' is propelled through his chaotic life by a heartfelt desire to help those around him but fails miserably. As 'FH' drifts from the fields of Iowa to fast-paced Chicago to sunny Phoenix, he starts to discover the small rewards of sobriety, and reaches the state of grace and fulfillment he had unknowingly been searching for."--Container.
