Starring Academy Award® Nominee John Hawkes, Academy Award Nominee William H. Macy and Academy Award Winner Helen Hunt, the film is based on the true story of California–based journalist and poet Mark O’Brien. Portrayed by the exceptionally gifted John Hawkes--who gives a career-defining performance--O’Brien’s story is the immensely poignant and surprisingly funny tale of a man, paralysed by polio who--at age 38--is determined to finally lose his virginity.
